Re: Flower!
Wow Harmon!
I love the all the angles on this flower!
Now, I have a question --as I'm still trying to understand brightness and all. Are the stamen's white or green the closer one gets to the center of the flower? I've found that when I get up close to a flower the colors seem to change with the less light my eye is allowed to perceive. Does that make sense?
In other words, at a distance of even a few inches, the camera and my eye see something as being whiter than it actually is because of the light reflecting off of it. (I think)
Thanks!

Re: Flower!
Hi ggt, they were more white. I used a reflector and shot with a sigma 70-200mm 2.8. Thanks.
