Nice shots. I'm not an expert, but I think perhaps some basic color correction in PS may help the photos pop a little more.

Here hope you don't mind.

yes, apple blossoms are tricky. They are a really pretty pink, but as they bloom they turn white and appear faded. I love photoshop, but I am a bit rusty. I'm working my way through a new photoshop book to get back in the groove with it...:)...Thank you for your suggestion...:)

Pretty pictures, Holly. I enjoy pictures of thistles and dandelions, there are so many different varieties. Welcome to the forum.
