Bonnie - More great colors! The close range and very shallow depth of field has the flowers a bit fuzzy, but for the stigma of the flower on the left. I agree with John, you must have beautiful gardens. Thad
Thank you :)
I know this one is not perfect in the foreground but it was the best of all my shots of this one so far and I loved the colours.
Must try to get a clearer one soon x
I love your composition with this image but my perfectionist eye wants a clean bloom. I might have either looked for more perfect flowers or done some photoshop clean up to make them even more beautiful. The color and composition are fabulous. The framing looked neat at first glance but when I enlarged it to desktop size, it actually seems to detract from the flowers to me. I might have either made the frame more dimensional or left it out altogether. It's a great image overall, maybe try playing with it some more? anne :-)
Tell me if you like it or don't but be sure to tell me why! I promise to always give honest and sincere (albeit gentle when necessary) critiques. MY NEW YEARS TIP for all, go have some fun with your new gear you got for Christmas. Do some things you rarely or never do. If you always shoot scenics, go shoot macros (or as close up as you can get.) Practice on different subjects, try new lighting techniques, bracket your shots (shoot the same image at different exposures and different apertures), get down low and shoot from your back, your belly, and your knees. Bend, twist, lean and climb up on things. Shoot toward the sky (carefully - blown out sunlight is NOT attractive :-) Just do something different and amaze yourself then share with us :-) Love you Caedians.
Thank you but I like this image as it came out, I also love this frame, think it's cute.
Thank you for the lovely comments guys, I've got plenty more garden flower shots to wade through hehe
