Spring blossoms are in full bloom all over the country

Spring blossoms are at their peak in many parts of the country right now.

Christchurch photographer Juliet Nicholas, who photographs gardens for NZ House & Garden, and took some of the photos here, says a cloudy day is the best for close-up photos of blossoms. The subtlety of the delicate petals is better photographed in soft light, not bright sunshine.

Blue sky days are better for photographing a wider view of a whole blossom tree or an avenue of trees. A vibrant sky (or dark background such as a fence) provides contrast and makes the blossom stand out.
