Together
by Phil Pogledich
Another shot of some California poppies from a few weeks ago. I haven't often come across a couple of blooms that are virtual mirror images of each other, but these certainly were. It was difficult to get them to line up perfectly and get shots off in between little gusts of wind. This is one that came out just about right. I might have preferred something closer to absolute symmetry between the two blooms. But on reflection, I think it works just fine.
All critiques and comments are greatly appreciated.
Canon 5DII, Tamron 90mm at f/2.8 for 1/160 second (ISO 100). I used a diffuser to soften the light.
