Thanks Bill, Douglas, Don, Hoppy, Montie, Michiel, Ira, Leonard and  
Luis.

It all started with a photo of the tree, which was about the only  
thing that was interesting to be photographed in the 50 meters walk  
between office and sandwich bar that noon: spring really began last  
week.
It was just a grab shot in auto mode, upward to the sky, so heavily  
underexposed. In itself it wasn't very interesting.
So that got me thinking: putting the blossoming tree in a cold and  
stark environment could make a nice contrast.
The cold and stark environment was easy to find: some spots in our  
office are so design that they are almost inhuman.
Finally the tree needed somebody to present it in that environment.  
So I asked one of the girls (the one with the least colorful clothes)  
to hold a cardboard.
The rest is the kind of hocus pocus that many of you don't like, so I  
won't elaborate on that :-)

Philippe
