Spring "Snow"

Another from the magical dogwoods. Having 'peaked early' with wide angle dogwood/sequoia shots last year, I spent some time searching for more artistic interpretations. There was a bunch of brushy branches hurting this one, but with some clever curves and color work I managed to largely hide them from sight. That low angle dappled light really brings these trees to life (very little saturation added - note the "drab" green leaves - that really is real orange!)
