Even More Flowers

This post contains more flowers, so let's get right to it.


I took this picture in early June of this year, with my Fujifilm Finepix S2800HD. Super-macro mode of course; that camera is amazing at super-macro.

They look like they're miniature satellites.....All turned towards the sun to collect as much energy as they can before nightfall. Seriously, one of the things that always amazes me about plants is how they can move to collect sunlight. They're pretty impressive.

Anyways, once again with this picture I've upped the Contrast and played with the color a little bit, you can check out the original here.

    The original is pale and dull, good work with contrast. It got a bit blurry on the edge, but don't worry, I think it's acceptable ;)

    Great work on this one. I love it how the main flower looks almost white!

    Nice as always. Didn't even notice the blurryness until I read Cid's post.

    Thanks for the support guys, it's always nice to know my work is enjoyed.

    Yeah, I noticed the focus thing on the main flower....I think the blurriness is ok, but I wish the focus was just a little bit farther forward--towards the center of the flower.

    I too like that flowers move towards the light, it's good proof that they really are sentient and alive :)
