Before I read the title I said, "Now that's Spring". Love the DOF and bokeh, and the adorable subject. I think it is slightly over sharpened. |

This picture is overall too bright and greenish for me. Very cute subject and strong composition though. 6 |

Love the colors. I might have just zoomed in on the little guy to the left. What a cutie. :) |

Nice high key treatment, wonderfully crisp color. A bokeh outtake perhaps? |
