Comment by Tammer:
For me, at first glance, your image is visually deceptive. My eyes saw the dark tree on the right and followed the outstretched branch, leading me to think the flowers were from that branch. As my eyes adjusted to your image I saw the flowers are hanging by a different branch and in a way seem to be kind of...."floating" for lack of a more technical word. (I'm not much of a technical person, so you'll have to bear with my first impression comment).

Hey, I've got a DC prairie dog in my portfolio too! These critters sure do look conspiratorial. Nice triptych.

I like the white against the green and the raindrop hanging on the leaf adds a nice touch.

Perfect title for this shot and for the challenge. Nice focus on the flowers and the background is nicely out of focus. I think I might have cropped out some of the background and made it a vertical image, although you would have to have some of the background to support the "tree" in the title.

Great shot.

Although you have a good depth of field, the composition of the back is a bit distracting for me. I like the being pulled to the earth by gravity. Pretty

That's a very sweet triad. Was there any way you could have avoided the harsh lighting on the flower inthe bottom left? Maybe a diffuser?
