Boris, I think your OOF was about right. Looks like some large upper left limbs probably kept you from getting more blossoms and less grass and such.(?) I know you didn't do much editing, but do you intend to lighten the near in-focus blossoms? Wouldn't be as lit by sunlight, but I believe would help my appreciation some. A nit: If a little smaller aperture were used it might have brought that far left blossom, in the "in focus" group, into focus. You're right, Galia did very well! Wife and I just returned from a local Almond blossom tour around our local area. Just about at their peak.
