Wildflowers

Posted by Jen (Alpharetta, United States) on 9 April 2007 in Plant & Nature and Portfolio.

Taking a walk over by a river I noticed these pretty little wildflowers.
I have no idea what type of wildflowers these are...some type of daisy perhaps. Anyone know?

Happy Monday Everyone!

Jen, whatever you did on this shot remember it! Your exposure is perfect. Notice how the whites are not blown out. I suspect you shot this in early morning or late evening or just found some nice filtered light. Whatever, the exposure is perfect and I like the whole composition!

@Craiger: Thank you Craig...it was morning and the sun captured flowers perfectly. I did a little color adjutment but that was it. I appreciate your comments very much!!!

Nick Passantino from Bronx, United States

Wow, the whites in this shot are great.. I like the hint of purple on the unopened flowers

9 Apr 2007 2:17pm

@Nick Passantino: That caught my eye too...odd how the unopened buds are purplish and the actual flower is stark white. Thanks for the visit Nick

Colour blind from Tokyo, Japan

The exposure is fantastic. You've done really well to now over expose any part. There are some whites that you can still see detail. Excellent job!!

ajoeh from Mataram, Indonesia

The composition is nice with great bokeh and still showing the detail.

Beautiful shot Jen! You took this in the morning right? The lighting is soft on the flowers! Great work!

10 Apr 2007 12:59am

@Stunner: yes it was in the morning...the light always seems to be so much softer then.

amy from Rocky Mountain House, Canada

Just wonderful, Jen! Craiger is right about the exposure... it's spot on. And the colours and composition just stellar. Not sure what kind of daisy... maybe a fleabane?

10 Apr 2007 12:59am

@amy: Thank you Amy...you are always so encouraging!!

I just got my set of macro extension tubes (circa 1960) today and have been trying them out. What I have learned so far is that you have a knack for making the difficult look effortless.

@Mike Cash: You are too kind Mike! Thank you so much!
