Light and the Iris

Gallery: FloraPosted March 27, 2011102 views12 comments

Nikon D300, Sigma macro 150. F/11, 1/60sec, ISO 200, tripod, cable release.

The backlight and lines of this Iris captured my attention. I hope it also merits your attention. Comments appreciated.

Very graphical Albert. The comp, colours and lighting are spot on.

Gorgeous work Albert. Love the variety of yellows and the bg is perfect for them. Very fine work for my tastes.

Works for me. If I had to be super nit-picky, I would clone out the 4 specs at the bottom of the flower. Nice one. Great comp.

Nice job, Albert. Minor suggestion. I would lighten the almost black triangle in the upper right corner. As it stands now, the eye goes to the spot and stays there.

Cheers,

Carol
