Purple Sea

Gallery: FloraPosted October 26, 2017926 views5 comments

It's been quite a long time since I've taken any flora photos. Thought it was time!

I liked this perspective on the nice purple dahlia. I'd love to know what you think. Critiques welcome.

Taken with my new Nikon D850, ISO 64, f16, 60mm, 5 second exposure, full image - not cropped

Great tones, and I love the shapes of the petals, Steve. Great color, and nice use of light and shadow. Excellent!

Nice shot Steve. It all works for me especially the composition and like someone else said the comparison to the sea is perfect.
Enjoying the new gear no doubt... devil
