Hello everybody

I was looking at this topic for the very start and I want to say that this is one of my lovely topics and now I am representing my version of pear blossoms.

Love the 1st pear blossom shot Armen, with the back lit (contra-jour?) effect.

You need a serious PP on the last one (lavender field, I presume). Try to do it with LR or ACR-5.4

That's not lavender - looks more like purple lupins!

Doc, David

I don't know what is the name of these flowers but I know that I could hardly take photos there because the smell was killing, it was nice smelling but very very saturated. It is very widespread flower in the mountains especially one of our regions called "Vayots Dzor" and I even have a honey of these flowers which is exclusively tasty :D

100 marks for exposure, 50 only for focus - it's into the patch of light when the foreground bluebells deserved to be the point of focus. Excellent tone quality, shadows, and colour.
