Thing 6

This is a picture of cherry-plum blossoms from Flickr user couregettelawn and it was posted April 4, 2006 and taken in Churchill Park in Salisbury (the state/country was not included). I initially searched keyword "peace" and found absolutely beautiful photos from nature, but they were copyrighted. I went into the advanced search and searched keyword "calm" with creative commons and found this photo.

I was drawn to it because one of my favorite things is photography and I'm always drawn to nature when I'm out and about snapping photos. The image makes me think of a spring day. The details of the flowers are nice and crisp and the background is somewhat blurred, which I think helps draw attention to the flowers.
