Beautiful spring, coming every year, John and Fons.
Intense fleeting moment Akira. Great timing and eye.

Thank you, John.  I found that the non-IF Nikkor 400/5.6 ED offers just a right amount of star bursts.  :)

Yes, it was shot at 1 sec.  I wanted to keep the ISO as low as possible (at 400 in this case).  The lens was stopped down to f8 or f11.

Thank you Airy, what of the colours, well you're looking at near desaturation.
