Today was another really nice, yet laid back day with the fam.  We went to church where I got some really great pics of my son at his Easter Egg hunt (more like a free for all candy gorging).  I was going to use a shot of him for today’s shot.  Around 8PM as I was looking outside I saw what you see above and had to shoot it.  My neighbors tree is absolutely beautiful when it blooms every Spring and as you can see I think I caught it a bit too late, but oh well, I still like it.  I went for a vintage/lomo look when editing in post and I like how it turned out.  If there’s enough interest maybe I’ll throw up a before/after.  Hope everyone’s week starts off well.

Camera Info: Canon 40D, EF50mm f/1.8 II @f1.8, 1/6sec, ISO200.
