4/15/06 - Eastern Redbuds

Decided to use a PAD that took a few steps back and looked at the bigger picture after all of the recent macros.
This is a double exposure - one sharp and one completely out of focus which created a magenta glow around these beautiful redbud trees growing in the midst of a loblolly pine grove.
Just 30 minutes earlier, that blue sky was black & grey.
