Description I think the best with lighting I've ever done! Just a little side note: I did not do any photoshopping to this. Some people have asked me if I cranked up the colors or added the curly shadow, but really I just took the photo and uploaded!

Location: Chicago, Illinois

Enjoy. (And especially in FULL VIEW!!)

Great colors, interesting lighting. I love the little random curly shadow! The composition might be reconsidered; I don't think the flower center needs to be directly in the center of the frame, but that's up to you and it's not bad how it is!

the lighting in this is so beautiful.
it really adds to that 'hiding' feeling.
too bad most beautiful flowers like this one love to hide.

The lighting on this is amazing.

I'm sure you get that alot
I wish the angle was more exciting though.

Oh your the first to say stuff on the angle! hmmmm I do believe you are right about that though...oh well i can only do awesome color or awesome angle....not both!

fcuk-uranus [2006-07-28 05:29:41 +0000 UTC]

Wow, the fullview really is required to get the full effect of this beautiful shot. I love the purple and green together, they're both so saturated that it really looks amazing. The lighting is perfect, everything in this is! Fantastic work XD

ksiop [2006-07-16 20:43:39 +0000 UTC]

Did you manipulate the light ? I'm guessing that it's your camera's flash from the shadows. But I'm only human and often wrong

Anyway, it is a fine take.

AmandaSupak In reply to ksiop [2006-07-16 20:47:06 +0000 UTC]

Actually no! It was just plain old sunlight (filtered through trees as you can see the swirly shadow on the petal)

And this is the original un-manipulated photo...neat!

Thanks again!

skull [2006-07-16 19:50:08 +0000 UTC]

FINALLY someone makes a nice shot of a flower without using sunlight or automatic flash for lighting. Bravo for not giving me the same shit over and over and over again!

This piece is really beautiful with the strange combination of natural and unnatural colours and the way sharp and blurred areas seem to interact throughout the piece - I like it when the DOF is not so obvious.

+fav goes to you, my friend!

Well thank you very much for taking the time to comment on my peice!!

I do love this one so much....it really does feel hidden away from the world to me!

And By the way...I hate camera flash. I dont' think I ever use mine....it makes such terrible lighting tones!!

DavidBelden [2006-07-14 21:54:07 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, i like the lighting too. Is the light on the flower a flash, or did it come through the trees like that? Man, those sony lenses look sharp.
