Paul, my favorite is the sparrow in the forsythia, though the other two are 
also very good.

Excellent set, Paul.  I love the geometry and composition of the sentinel.
Setting the sparrow in the forsythia bush cretes a marvelous little scene;
that is a great catch. I love the cherry tree;  it is a gem (the tree and
the image).

snowfountain cherry tree burst into bloom. I planted it 28 years ago when a 
friend moved away. We remained close for 27 years until she recognized some 
elements of our relationship in my novel and ended it all. Like friendship, the 
blooms of the snowfountain cherry are fragile, so I photographed it today under 
grey skies, lest tonights cold and rain drive those little flowers to the 
ground.

The daffodils and sparrow were shot with the K-3, D FA 150-450 and DA 1.4X 
converter. I shot the cherry tree with the K-1 and D FA 24-70, using the 
attenuating screen and live view to achieve a ground level view.
