Meet my little friend Evelyn the ladybug. Evelyn lives in a little corner of my Pops enchanted garden. Evelyn is always climbing and exploring the different flowers. Her favorite ones are the Lilies and the Tulips. This pretty girl is painted with a Nikon D200, using a Nikkor 105mm f/2.8 macro lens with a 12mm extension tube.

Image Solution:
focal length @ 105mm / exposure mode @ aperture priority / in camera matrix metering / 1/125sec. - f/5.6 / exposure comp @ -0.3EV / ISO @ 400 / white balance @ cloudy / AF - Mode @ manual / color space @ sRGB / lighting solution - Nikon R1C1 wireless close up speedlight system; both light units set to minimum fill flash with a wide dispersal pattern with unit #1 porting a yellow gelatin filter; and unit #2 porting a green gelatin filter for a creamy candy-like hue. / tone comp @ +1 degree / hue adjustment @ +2 degrees / saturation factor @ +2 degrees / support platform - tripod assist /


Comments greatly appreciated...:cool:

Absolutely beautiful. Very creative use of flash. Love this image - it is so simple elegant. Nice use of negative space.
