Taken in my sunroom on 3-11-2010 at 1:04 p.m.
Camera info: handheld, Tamron 18-270 mm lens set at 119 mm, fill flash (to add a bit more light to the face of the flower, which was backlit), aperture priority (f/6.4), ISO 200, evaluative metering. The "watercolor" background is actually the back yard which was far below and, thus, out of focus.
Contest: Details and Macro (March 2010)

Exif: F Number: 6.4, ExposureTime: 1/40 seconds, Flash: fired, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 296, FocalLength: 119.00 mm, Model: EOS DIGITAL REBEL XSi

I LOVED this one when I saw it go up on our Shutterbugs monthly assignment page. The background colors perfectly compliment the flower. This is a WINNER!! #1253033

Thanks, Anna Mary! I'm thrilled you like this photo. Hopefully, others will, too. I plan to use the uncropped version on greeting cards, since it has more "empty" space than this cropped version and will allow me to add text. #8492384
