Backlit fall weed 2

Gallery: FloraPosted November 9, 2011104 views9 comments

This is a typical meadow weed in its fall stage. Don't know what it is though. This was backlit by the sun; the background alludes to tree trunks and backlit leaves on the trees.

Canon Rebel T1i. 90mm macro lens. F/10 for 1/60 sec. ISO 200.

The back-lit weed gives me the sense of actually being in that meadow, Carolyn. I think you did a good job of catching the essence of a typical meadow scene.

Regards,

Carol

I like this as posted Carolyn. This is a vision often seen but rarely captured so well. Great work in my opinion.

Carolyn: Wonderful lighting and a superb capture. I know this is the natural orientation but I like it flipped to a vertical also. Really well done.>=))>

Besides the main subject, I also like that background allusion. The circles of different colors adds a lot.

Carolyn:
Nice backlighting. The bg is really alluding with the lens flare and earthy color. Lovely
