Thank you, this was done with my girlfriend camera it's a Olympus C3040 Digital, the shot was also hand held (did a short series with her camera as I was impressed with it)

So simple...so sweet. I used to string these in my hair as a child. I've always loved them.

Beautiful capture.

I like how the border echoes the yellow in the flower. I'd like it if the background were brighter green and the flower were maybe a bit more saturated. But maybe not...*scratches chin*

Raymate In reply to attack-kitten [2004-05-17 07:15:28 +0000 UTC]

Thank you... I did tweak the image a little for contrast as this was under a dark tree so that give me the darker background that I felt would make the yellow stand out... but as you say :scratches chin:

amazing focus. crisp and clear. just enough DoF to get the flower and still blur out the stem.

Raymate In reply to divinesk8er [2004-05-17 07:13:02 +0000 UTC]

Thank you... I was pleased the way the DoF worked, it was hand held macro mode and I wasn’t' sure if it would be clear until I viewed it full screen

Very nice colours. You know, the white and red in the background on both right and left sides are balancing very well the composition of the image since the subject is in the center. I'm not sure about the yellow outline in the border. I very much like the overall. A full of taste shot

Raymate In reply to Marwan-Dandash [2004-05-17 07:10:59 +0000 UTC]

Thank you... I felt the yellow worked better for the boarder, after trying white and other colours. Thanks for your view and comment
