Buds Waiting for the Right Opportunity

Nice close up, well composed by the rules! Compliments, Michael! PDE

I really like the shape of this branch with the buds against the gentle colors of the background bokeh. I would have liked a touch more sharpness in the buds themselves though I think the stem and leaves are perfectly displayed. I especially like the strong vertical of the stem.

Superb macro photo! The DOF makes creates the perfect backyard!
