Plenty of signs of spring on my walk by the river yesterday. The subject for Photo Art Friday is macro so I zoomed in and then cropped them even closer back on my computer.
I love the red on the new growth and buds.
In each case I duplicated the image and then went through the blending modes for one that I liked.
Such hopeful signs of Spring! I especially like the pinky red buds - bet they'll be unfurling in the next week ...
ReplyDeleteYes, the red buds are beautiful Helena. We have a few trees in leaf here but I love them at the tightly closed bud stage.
ReplyDeleteLove your use of negative space in the second and third images Helena. It really makes the red buds pop. Thank you for sharing your photo art with PAF!
ReplyDeleteLovely colors...great sky in the second photo.
ReplyDeleteGreat images of spring - yay, finally some color coming back into the world :) Nicely done - thanks for the visit.

ReplyDeleteHow pretty. Your 2nd shot of the red buds is really nice but I think that last one is even nicer.

I agree. I try to pay much attention to the buds in spring. Your closeups are wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThe "buds" are absolutely fantastic macros. Thanks so much for sharing. Karen (visiting from PAF)
ReplyDeleteThose buds are really gorgeous aren't they? Lovely subject for some superb spring macros :)
ReplyDeleteLovely. I'm so ready for Spring and these make me smile.
