In Flight

Gallery: FloraPosted November 15, 2009148 views21 comments

I'm finishing up the processing of alot of images and soon you all will be hit for weeks to months with shots

(Lord help us all

). Anyway...I moved in close on a mum for this shot. When I saw this on my monitor, I immediately thought of a seagull in flight during sunset.

Critiques and suggestions are very welcomed and aprpeciated.

D80, iso 100, 105mm, cropped a tad

Fabulous colour, Beth and a very imaginative take on the petal edges. Like it a lot.

Beth, you are dead on. When I first opened this up, my first thought was of a bird in flight. And then I saw your title and script.

What a great name and a great shot. Beth, I really like the simplicity of this. So, this is what mums look like up close!

Awesome!

Amazing soft bg with beautiful colors and the shadows for contrasts. It really sets off the edge which is located so nicely.
