Extraordinary lighting capture of this spectacular blossom, Pat!! Excellent DOF and gorgeous colors as well! Beautifully done!!Patricia A. Cale June 19, 2005
Thank you so much for your generous comments, Stan. I value your opinion considering that you are one of the best flower photographers I know!!! I tried to use the light the best way I could, and I was happy with the way it turned out. I took this for a class I was taking, and all of my classmates were across the road shooting these flowers with front lighting. #1488389Mary N C. Taitt July 01, 2005
The lighting on here is very sensitive--perfect! Congratulations on being "chose" for discussion. Mary #1544723Patricia A. Cale July 01, 2005

Thanks, Laura. Backlighting certainly is an interesting way to shoot. Like you, I love it!! #1547614Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
