    More of the Flowers

    Hi all.

    thought I'd add a few of my flower shots. Please let me know what you think. Thanks in advance for any comments. Take care all, Jason

    The last one, to me, looks as if the flowers are made of ribbon candy...

    There so close I can almost smell them. Really nice colors in them as they are bright and sharp. Were you using a macro lens and what kind of lighting did you use? Natural or a little flash? Overall very nice

    Re: More of the Flowers

    I have to admit I'm not sure on the lens. I use a Cannon Powershot A620 camera and I just zoom in and focus what I want...I'm really just kind of winging it and use intuition. I'm learning. As far as lighting...the first two are natural light and the third is a night photo with a flash. Thanks for the comment. I really do appreciate it. These boards are teaching me a lot.

    Re: More of the Flowers

    Good job on the flowers! I'm not sure what type of flower that is in the first 2 shots but it made me think of watermelon. I like the top 2 the best, but my only qripe is that they look oversaturated. The only sugguestion I could give is to check the white balance on your camera setting to make sure it corresponds with the environment.

    Good Post!
