Untitled

This would be much better in color to bring out the beauty of the cherry-blossums. I am not fond of the way the monument cuts through the branch.

By itself, this photo is much too confusing. Having seen another in this series, I know what that big blurry thing is, but by itself, this doesn't work for me at all.

Nice idea and good use of DOF. But possibly the background element is too vertical for this composition. The foreground can also be better lit. Perhaps a touch of fill?
