Wonderful saturated colours, interesting contrasts and great PoV! I like very much the chosen frame, too. Thanks Paolo, for sharing.
Warm regards,
Athanasios.

Hi Paolo,
I think this is a magnolia tree ... beautiful blooms it got. I like how the fallen leaves created a natural carpet in the ground. Well captured and composed with good image quality. Well done! tfs
Cheers,
Renier

Hi Paolo

I love Spring, & this is a nice capture of the attractive violet pink blooms. Good sharpness & framing!

Hi Paolo,
It is the right time of the day that makes this shot unique and attractive. While the pink blossom gave me that sense of happiness and love it is the effective use of the long shadows and beautiful greens that complimented to make this a very appealing and successful shot. Well done!!

Have a nice spring time.

Ciao Paolo,
ecco la dimostrazione che il buon occhio del fotografo con pochi elementi crea capolavori. Bravissimo Paolo, i colori e la nitidezza di questa foto sono una festa per gli occhi. Foto molto bella. Congratulazioni.

Buon Giorno Pablo,
The highlight and shadow creates a dramatic landscape. It is an ideal picture of spring.

I'm very impressed with your list of travels, I've often thought from your notes that you travelled a lot when you were younger but not since you had children The truth is, you've never stopped travelling.

SAG, Pat
