Single Flower

[Alfred Forns]

Returning form the Alligator Farm we spotted some flowers along !-95 by an exit and were able to wort with. Very large wild flower bed in a ditch by a gas station. Lucked out with some cloud cover and had lots of fun. Even got some insects !!

Comments welcome and much appreciated

The wide aperature works well here Al - good detail on main section of this interesting flower head against a lovely soft BG. I like it!!
Is that a couple of dust bunnies I can see Al ;)

Glad to hear you 2 got the flowers with clouds! I had clear skies and 15 mph wind!!!

Love the image alfred, excellent DOF placement.

Good eye John.

the bg for this is phenomenal!! the dof is superb!! my only complaint is that it looks to be a dust spec just left of the flower. other than that, this is classic!!

Love the soft light, the COMP, and the ethereal feel. Way to go.

Very nicely done Al love that soft dreamy look with the soft background...:cool:

Hi Alfred,
I might add............IMO this works so well because it looks like the flower was totally isolated from other flowers/stems and a bit away from the BG as well. Looks like a dream!
