Milkweed

[denise ippolito]

Canon 40D
EF 500mm w/ 1.4 ext.
1/400 sec at f/5.6

I didn't set out to shoot this hence the lens etc. It just caught my eye. I somehow lost the luminescent effect I originally had. Any tips on adding it now.:confused:

I like it Denise It is eye catching and pleasing Might want to carefully crop out the darker stem.

Could try selecting by color and lightening the white then inverse darken the bg? MIght work !!!

Great job Denise, I like the soft effect; another vote for cloning out the black stem...:cool:

I tried to crop it out. See if this is better.

Great capture Denise. Very well composed and very original. Much better on the re post.

Hi Denise if you lost the sheen in PP, maybe you could shoot the milkweed using FF to bring out the highlights.

I went back the next day to re-shoot them -but someone had cut them back! Oh well I'm on the hunt for them again
