Just a Dash of Pink

Just a Dash of Pink

Every year around the end of March till the mid of April Washington DC is pretty in pink. Everywhere you go you see these beautiful cherry blossoms in bloom. These trees were in fact a gift from the Japanesse back in 1912. When I saw these blossoms they were so delicate I wanted that to come across in the shot. The photograph had many flowers in the shot, pink petals everywhere but the emphasis and just how soft and light these petal where wasn’t coming through to my liking. Hence, I thought the method of selective coloring would do it better justice.
