Cherry blossom

I've just entered a back blip for yesterday - a wonderful day out with Maurice 1948 in the east end of London.

Today I have been trying out my "new" old Pentacon 29mm lens in my garden in the Chilterns.  I think I was a bit too ambitious trying to manually focus with f/2.8 aperture, so not many of my shots are even vaguely sharp.  I liked the stamens in this cherry blossom.  I can't believe how much the flowers in the garden have opened in the 3 days we were away.
