Challenge: Flowers (Advanced Editing IV)
Collection: Plants
Camera: Canon EOS-300D Rebel
Lens: Canon EF 50mm f/2.5 Macro
Location: Garden
Date: Jul 2, 2006
Galleries: Macro, Floral
Date Uploaded: Jul 2, 2006

 This is a reshoot of a shot I did when I was first experimenting with my macro lens, but I never entered it into a challenge. I really like the repetition of the shapes, and the way it looks like a zoom kinda thing. I did some with a wider DoF but I liked this one how the tips of the petals started blurring into the background. Only editing was WB Adjustment in RAW, and cloning out a small speck.

Excellent work. Definitely a strong contender amongst this large field of flowers. I like it for its orginality. Well done!

6 - Do like this, just too 'blown' in my opinion - but might work well once printed, who knows.

Pretty cool but I think I am overwhelmed with white. The front daisy blens into the back one in some spots but not others. 6
