Harmony

Gallery: FloraPosted September 13, 2011131 views16 comments

Nikon D300, 50mm + 36mm ext tube. F/11, 1/80sec, ISO 200. Tripod, cable release.

I focused on the stamens and a bit on the petals to show some detail. I tried to get the color and lines in harmony, I hope you enjoy the composition. Comments appreciated.

Albert:
You are really getting better with these close up. Really like this one a lot with the soft wash but still retaining the shape of the flower.

One of your best postings (IMHO) Albert, the soft feeling of this helps it stand out wonderfully!

Like it a lot, the sharpness and softness are in perfect harmony, I might have tilted it a bit so the stem is more towards the corner, but that's just me ;) Great colours.

I certainly do enjoy this, Albert. Excellent choice of DOF. This has a dream-like effect.
