[Leica] IMG: Blossom Trail and a question...

[leica_r8 at hotmail.com (Aram Langhans)]

You mean that Umbrella?  Not sure I like it or not.  In this image it does 
not seem to belong.  Maybe in a street scene or something like that, but it 
looks out of place in an orchard.  Try for a smudge pot for scale.

But I like the image.  Great orchard.
