Sweet Leaf

Sweet Leaf - 5.10mm at f/2, ISO 80, Shutter speed 1/2000 second

So everyone is taking photographs of flowers right now because it's Spring. I'm not a massive fan of taking photographs of flowers. Too much like still life for my liking, and there are a million photographs of flowers already on Flickr. Plus, mother nature has made sure that they all look pretty much the same. 

I found this Cherry Blossom tree (if that's what it is, I'm no nature buff) and I thought this shot turned out quite well, so I thought I'd share. It's actually using a Leaf camera system color profile. To be honest, if it wasn't for that, I wouldn't have bothered posting it. I love the colors that system delivers, especially in this image. I also love the rays of sunlight across the image. I can spot 3 distinct rays. How many can you see?

This photograph was taken with a Leica D-Lux 4.
