Description

Close view of beautiful pale ping Ornamental Plum tree blooms. You can see the beautiful red leaves emerging as well. Soft pastel background with texture creates a beautiful addition to your home or office. I have given this version a digital paint effect for artistic appeal. Wonderful for any wall in your home or office, or perhaps a greeting card. Many more wonderful works can be found in my various galleries, from photographs and photoart to digital creations and abstracts. Thanks for browsing, commenting and most of all for any purchases.
