 I just caught this tree hidden behind some scrub pines that had overtaken a patch of ground where a farmhouse once stood. At one time, there might well have been much love and laughter tears and sorrow shared beneath the bounteous beauty of this now long forgotten apple tree.

I like the selective focus on this and how the background flora has this impressionistic wash look to it.

I like the composition of the tree and the blue sky. The lighting on the flowers in the foreground is awesome!

Pretty good, would rather have seen an even shallower DOF though as the backround is still a little bit too busy for my personal taste but pretty good like I said. 6 from me.

I find the main focus not coming out from the background enough.
