Overload of Dew

Gallery: FloraPosted September 30, 2013113 views8 comments

That is some amazing amount of Dew on a Reddish-Maroon Dahlia. The color is not highly accurate but close to what I saw. Its a nightmare for me when these kinds of Reds are involved.

You can also see me in Orange Jacket refracted in some big drops there.

Pls see LARGE VERSION.

ND300s, AFD200mm F/4 Micronikkor, 1/6 Sec, ƒ/16, ISO 400 and Tripod. Sunlight coming from the back-right so a diffuser was held to block it.

Thanks a lot for your comments on Dahlia Abstract and let me know what you think of this one.

No worries on the reds here, Ram. They look rich and vibrant. Wonderful capture of an interesting specimen. Very nicely done!

Just amazing quality, Ram, a real tour de force ! I would have thought this was a stack - the sharpness is extraordinary. Managed to find you ok in the large version !!!

Absolutely amazing image, Ram! I agree that these dark reds are always a challenge. But you did a great job here!
