Description
I took this shot a couple of months ago and cannot remember how I ended up with a pure white background! This was taken outside while I was on a photo-walk. Neighbors walked by with their kids in strollers, their dogs on leashes, or runners with earbuds in their ears . . . all looking at me curiously as I bent and stretched to get different angles of the Spring blooms in Ohio. I took a lot of images that I really liked, but kind of ignored this one until I noticed it yesterday. Now, that I am really looking at it, it has become one of my favorites from that walk!
The end of April in Ohio this year was glorious! Every Spring flowering tree and shrub were heavily ladened with blossoms. I walked under a group of white Crabapple trees and could not see the sky above because of the canopy of beautiful white blooms and pink buds. The ground looked snow-covered with fallen petals. I laughed at myself when I realized I was taking deep, deep breaths over and over again, trying to suck in that delicate perfume in the air. I sure hope no one was watching me! I wish I could share with you the atmosphere that surrounded me and these trees that wonderful Spring day.
Thank you so much for looking at my images. I appreciate your time and interest so much.
I am very concerned with our environment and have decided to donate any money I make from any sales of this image to the ENVIRONMENTAL DEFENSE FUND.....because the Earth needs a good lawyer! We all need to speak up and support efforts to protect our environment. We will not get a second chance!
