bought myself a macro lens a couple of weeks ago but havent really had the chance to use it much as of yet. got this today out in the back garden.the natural light left it looking very flat so i used flash to give a nice (imo :-) ) back light daisy by dallan healy, on Flickr
Enjoy the new lens Dallen, I like the image but I think the top left is just a little
bit bright, resulting in a slight loss in definition of the petals. The greens are very
nice, giving a really fresh feel to the image.
hi jenny , thanks for taking the time to reply . thats actually the look i was going for, a kind of high key / slightly blown out effect….its not to everyone’s taste obviously :-) i might tone it down a bit and see how it looks .
I like the look of this.
The composition and colour really appeal to me with just one flower included and
the background nicely blurred.
It has a lovely bright summery feel to it.
I understand what you were going for but as a viewer I too find the top left hand corner a
bit overpowering in comparison to the rest of the image.
I think the top part of the flower gets a little lost.
Maybe if the the rest of the background was either all like the top left corner or all like the
bottom right corner.
