Description
There Was a Cherry-TreeThere was a cherry-tree. Its bloomy snows
Cool even now the fevered sight that knows
No more its airy visions of pure joy --
As when you were a boy.
There was a cherry-tree. The Bluejay sat
His blue against its white -- O blue as jet
He seemed there then!-- But now -- Whoever knew
He was so pale a blue!
There was a cherry-tree -- our child-eyes saw
The miracle:-- Its pure white snows did thaw
Into a crimson fruitage, far too sweet
But for a boy to eat.
There was a cherry-tree, give thanks and joy!--
There was a bloom of snow -- There was a boy --
There was a bluejay of the realest blue --
And fruit for both of you.
(James Whitcomb Riley)

nice details and colors.
I think bracking the rule of thirds works pretty well here.

Maybe a border to distance it from the harsh GfxBlue background?
Excellent piece.

I agree that in this case the centered position works actually!

I wish to express my gratefulness for artists like you. The mixure between professionalism and evangelic beauty in your photographs are just divine. Your art lifts the most innocent in us humans. Thank you.
By the way, I am living at Cherry Tree Place, in Waterford West in Australia.
