a single flower

I probably could stand to do just a little touch up on it yet, and get rid of that edge of thing at the top of picture, but I like the Trillium myself.  

 

Thank you! I liked it too. The angles are good, the bokeh is nice. nicely done Doug! haha.

ok, purists take note, I did fix 2 slight imperfections in a pedal, and removed distracting stick edge. Oh, the travesty of it!

Me, the guy talking about edits recently too! LOL.

I don't think these types of edits are bad though, helpful.

I did think it was really cool to stumble on the pink trillium. I have a few more shots to go through as well, not to many though, this may well be my very best Trillium this year, and it may be THE best for the year period for me...

I got majorly distracted with water yesterday, and didn't spend as much time as I could have on Trillium, I admit.

For anyone doubting the power of the Canon 500D on a 70-200 VR, this was the combo used here... I think I'll keep my 500D and 70-200VR a while longer.

Did I mention this was HANDHELD! Ack! I think I will go back and do this with a tri-pod and see if I can add any other nice images.

Thanks Connie.  

Sam, I have started to sell mine a dozen times. Each time, something says, nah, wait a while. Now this time, it may be off the market for good.  

 

Thanks Jim, and for the explanation. Perhaps this is right, as I do have an image with partial pink from yesterday.

I didn't go browsing though a lot of leaves and stuff to get to them yesterday though. I'm a little snake shy at present, having seen one this week, and found out another one was in a cabin that I did not go into. Seeing 6 bears to boot, my camera hand was about as steady as a mixer, lol.

I'll post some more images as I get them processed.
