Family Potrait

by Krunal Janani

Gallery: FloraPosted February 25, 201196 views16 comments
Av - 6.3, Tv - 80, ISO - 200, 100mm with 25mm extension tube, about 80% of the original image, Tripod

Flower Name :- Silver cockscomb (Celosia argentea)

well i jus said that i dont generally caption my images but while processing this the title jus struck me & since has stuck in with this image :biggrin:

I was going to try & clone out the OOF white flower jus behind the right flower but it jus gave the right flower a very feminine look & hence struck me with the title so i left it as it is :smile:

Fascinating subject Krunal. Good depth of field choice for my tastes and I like color palette very much as well. I would normally have cloned out the white as well but surprisingly for me, I like it here. Beautiful image - no suggestions.

Very good as is Krunal. The color combination is excellent, and very well seen. A subject you could shoot over and over again ....from different perspectives.

So lovely ,wonderful isolation of your subject and such beautiful BG. Though I am not a fan of the OOF flower in the background, I like it too be clean, I see what your saying, but I do still find it a bit distracting. Beautiful work!

Well named, seen and processed Krunal. I like the soft pastel feel. Good job separating the BG.

I like this just how you've presented it Krunal. Wonderful color palette, and great separation of the flowers.

I love the rich colors and the separation of the flowers from the bg...my only little nit is the one bg flower is a bit too close to the ur flower... a bit more spearation would habve worked better...maybe a slightly different angle? Regardless the shot works very well.

Krunal, a beautiful photo of an unusual flower, at least for me. Colors are splendid.
Take care.

Stunning!!!! Like everything about this, especially the contrast with the sharp flower and blurred background. The light flower doesns't bother me at all. Wouldn't bother trying to clone it out unless you make a copy of the image and just want to practice your post processing skills.

Beautiful family portrait Krunal. I really like how the flowers stand out from the background.
