This is my favorite picture of the day. You captured the boat in the perfect location. Beautiful blossoms. I wouldn't change anything about this! Great job

This is a beautiful outdoor shot. The light is good. The colours are natural. Overall it has been composed well with interesting cherry trees in the foreground and single boat on a placid lake in the background all adding interest to the calmness of the scene!

Cherry trees always have such pretty blooms. This is a great capture.
I love the colors in it.
I like the way you used the trees to frame the boat.
A job very well done.

Love cherry blossom time. What a great and colorful scene for these two on the river. Good focus, exposure and framed by the wonderful cherry trees. Good one.

Wow, beautiful composition Fred with the cherry blossoms and the blue canoe really stands out against the green water and it is nicely framed by the tree. Excellent focus, lighting and framing:)

Beautiful exposure, well chosen frame and this blue boat is making your picture very special as touch of a light color amongst pink white flowers and the green background of the water and the meadow. Very nice, the right distance to create this scene and a perfect contrast

A nice idea to frame the boat with the blooms! A pretty piece of landscape photographey with subtle hues ranging from white to deep pink. Nice placement of of the boat in the composition. And sharp front to back. DonkeyOatey
