Backlit by the Sun

I took a quick break from my "lawnmower man" task after supper tonight and I grabbed my Sony Alpha and went out to photograph in the low sunset. I found a number of subjects such as the new blossoms on the crab apple trees and the sugar plum, but I turned toward the sun and noticed how it shone through the leaves of the maple tree in the back yard, where it is just beginning to leave out. Here are three I liked the best, these are about light first, subject second and the composition always!
