Crabapple blossoms

White flower petals were blown off the trees by the wind and were flying about like a snowstorm today.  It was spectacular seeing warm noncrystalline snow.  With several days of rain forecast and blossoms falling fast, few chances for tree flower photos remain.  I snipped a small sprig off our crabapple tree and took it to the basement, photographing it against a black muslin backdrop using a single fluorescent softbox for light.
