Sunlit Yellow

Ken:
Nice flower and POV. I detect a bit of softness of the anthers. The DOF looks fine and the BG blur is good. I am not sure whether you used AF and if you did, the camera seems to have chosen the petals instead of the anthers.

Hi Ken, Eye-popping oranges; however IMO, image is very soft. Don't know if you were hand-holding and using a tripod; nor do I know your f/stop or speed, so difficult to comment.

Regards,

Carol

I like the colors and the DOF, but like Carol this looks soft on my screen.

Ken: This is a solid capture and the apparent softness is a processing issue. I played with this a bit in PS and added some smart sharpen and it popped very nicely. My main nit is the clipped petals. Day lilies can be hard to shoot because of their size. A wider angle would have been my choice here vs a tight crop because I like the OOF flower in the ULC. What kind of processing software are you using? >=))>
