Remembering Spring Finalists

First of all, thank-you so much for entering Remembering Spring everyone! Hosting this photo challenge was an amazing experience. I loved all your entries... and I'm sure my readers will too! :) So here are all the entries I got, in the order they were linked-up/e-mailed...



 Emily Grace of Emily Grace Photography
 
I love this shot! The focus, the background and the lighting are just perfect!

I'm not very good at low key, so I can't help but admire shots like this one!

Composition, angle, and dewdrops = amazing!

I love the focus on that single stamen!



Rachel Hope of Hope's Treasures

Don't you just love the focus!?

Wild roses... they never fail to capture the essence of spring.




Anne Therese of Creativity

When someone mentions spring, my first thought is always about lilacs. :)

The flowers up close and the road in the distance, I love that!




Sarah of This is My Father's World Photography

A tiny white flower... so simple, and yet so complicated.

You can actually see the tiny lilac blooms peeking out of this lilac bud! Amazing shot!




Katie Wilson of My Life Through the Canon Lens

Wow! The focus, composition, angle, colours, and pretty much everything else about this photo is totally amazing!

I love the lighting... a lot!




Brooke of Life Exposed Photography

I must have a print! This photo has the prettiest, most creative bokeh background that I've ever seen!

What can I say?! All of Brooke's photos are amazing! I highly encourage you to visit her blog!




Katie Josephine of Clair de Lune

I love the detail!


The vibrant yellow in this shot make it unique! Very pretty!

Again, many thanks to everyone who entered! :) The finalists were really hard for me to choose. After looking through all the entries thousands of times, I was finally able to narrow them down to five. And the finalists are... *drum roll please*

    Emily Grace ~ You're welcome! Your photo was amazing!
    I love that one too! It was really hard for me to choose which one of Brooke's photos to enter into the finalist round. I loved them both, but in the end, the lovely bokeh won me over! :D
