Description

(F-Stop 11) Here I wanted to blur the background to reduce distractions and place the emphasis on the single bloom, but at the same time keep a little bit of the background detail.

Thanks Dale. I was happy with how it turned out. Of course if it hadn't been an overcast day, maybe I could have gotten the sky a little bluer. #111321

Glad to hear that Evy, as DOF is what I was experimenting with! Aperture settings are new to me and I was experimenting with different settings and observing the results. #111713
