Bex and I spent the whole day together, which means that of
course we went out for plenty of photography wanders. Before the rain came we
managed to slip out for some flower photos.
This flower really caught my eye, and when I went to look at
it more closely I discovered that there was a small insect on it as well! To
take the photo with an interesting composition I used the largest aperture
possible and got in really close to the flower. This ensured that the depth of
field would be very small. I also used a flash gun to make sure the illumination
was correct; also this makes the background go very dark.
I decided not to edit the photo because I really liked the
overall composition and the effect was exactly what I had intended. The pink is
so vibrant that I didn’t need to change the colour temperature or the
saturation. I really do like the effect of the photo.
I had such a nice day today, hopefully the weather should be
nice for tomorrow (fingers crossed the forecast is correct).
