Simply Beautiful! I'll miss the Cherry Blossoms this year since we moved, but that's okay, GA has plenty of other pretty trees to admire : )

@Paul: I use a plugin called 'frame it' with Photoshop Elements. You can define thousands of different frame styles. I use Photoshop to do most of my editing, but then copy/paste the image into elements to add the frame. This plugin is called 'Essentials2'. Its remarkably cheap too, you can find it here http://www.ononesoftware.com/
very nice colors i like this very much
