A warm and dry February has encouraged the almond tree in the backyard to 
come into bloom. These are some of the tree?s first-day efforts.

I manipulated the image, not terribly heavily, to produce something I like a 
bit better.

I tried removing the out of focus branch to the right of the flowers but 
found it took away from the image rather than helping it.

The original image is from a Fujifilm GFX100 with 250mm lens, hand held. 
This is heavily cropped.

Thanks for looking. Thoughts/feelings/suggestions most welcome.
