Fortunately no pollen allergies for me. Even my wife commented that she can't remember a year that there was so much Goldenrod around. It seems to be everywhere. So I thought I take advantage of its abundance to make some images. I just wish the leaves weren't as chewed up as they are.
I am really curious about your thoughts here. I have made many Goldenrod images over the past week or so and have junked most of them. Focus is very difficult since they reach out in all directions. And the yellows seem to oversaturate badly. I desaturated the yellow in this image but am not sure I backed off enough. Thoughts?
