Gander

Original photo, no filter. I took this shot right here around the beginning of spring, all of the trees, shrubs and flowers in the area were just starting to wake up from a cold winter. I like what I did with this one, I had to kind of walk up underneath the tree and use my left hand to pull back a branch or two while I tried to get a clear view. It's like what you're seeing here was hiding from me so I did my best to get to where I wanted to be for the shot. These little white flowers that were getting ready to open up look like yellow diamonds to me, as they get bigger they won't continue to look like this but for now that is what they're reminding me of. I'm pretty sure that if I walked back by this tree it will have gone into full bloom mode showing what I captured was just a moment in time. Neat to have pictures throughout the year to see the different stages mother nature goes through.
