Floral Shots - Blossoms...

This spring got all the blossom "stuff" out early as we had a March heat wave, but lately the blooms have been in full flow everywhere. I'm going to post some shots I got the other day of general "groups" or wider scale blossoms, looking at POV, composition and soft light. These were all taken with a medium (40 - 50 mm) lens and tend to work with pattern of blossoms and/or leaves. As I get photos of plant life, I've discovered more and more an appreciation of the various leaf structures and how they work as backgrounds in certain compositions, but a "thickness" of blossoms can create their own backgrounds, echoing the focal points as well!
