Description

A rework of this special flower. There is an obvious background change, which I feel is quite creative!
Captured on one of my early morning walks around 6.00 A.M, at 1/25th f8.0 and ISO-160 with a Nikor 18-105mm f3.5 lens, and a Nikon D80 Camera.


Exif: F Number: 8, Exposure Bias Value: -0.33, ExposureTime: 1/25 seconds, Flash: did not fire., ISO: 160, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 48.00 mm, Model: NIKON D80
