RE: Friday blossom frame...

DEAR MARK,
        Any particular reason you didn't use the hyper focal distance and
appropriate f stop to keep both the blossoms and moon in focus.  In the
image there seems to be sufficient light to allow a higher f stop.  Or was
it a creative choice to allow the blossoms to go soft?
                CHEERS!

Subject: Friday blossom frame...

The blossoms explode every year. A nearby street always has a line of 
branching trees wearing white flowers. That's how I know spring is coming.

I had the M6 TTL in the car Sunday, and stopped to capture the march 
of trees. After I'd clicked the last frame on the roll, I noticed the 
moon above one of the blossom crowns. So I went home to get more 
film. I discovered I was out,  so I grabbed the digital camera with 
the 70-200mm and drove back.

By this time, the moon had set a little. But I like what I got:
