Flowers again
to my way of thinking this is not a review....I already knew it was a flower shot

Jim Snarski: Rite of Spring: A flower shot. I would say, it is a shot for records and does not seem to be an artistic expression in my mind. If I were Jim, I would have focused my attention on just the central flower. Would like to see a little more shadow details. It is tricky to get it in white flowers. Did you use built in flash or is it just the sideway sunlight?
thanks for the comments Achal...I think just shooting the central floret would have been mundane....I wanted to convey the intricacy of the Rhododendron blossom and it's complex configuration...the lighting is natural light and the shadow detail is just what it is....
