The callas in the Missouri Botanical Garden are striking, but the location makes it difficult to get a pleasing background (buildings, fences, other flower beds, etc are all around). So I decided to approach from a low angle, placing the flower against the thinly overcast sky, and by exposing for the flower, let the sky go completely white. Does this work? Should I have used a bit of fill flash?
