I should really have my text preceding this series.

I took a photo of a plum tree in bloom. I liked the colour and the light in the background and it looked almost like an impressionist painting, even without any editing. I played around with it using various photoscape features and then I remembered where I had seen a plum tree in bloom before.

I had to tweak the colour a bit but the similarity is there, is it not?

Vincent van Gogh’s painting “Flowering plumtrees” can be admired in the National Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh.
