Flower Shoot

One of the women in my department grows exceptionally nice flowers. When her lilies came in really well she brought me a second bouquet; I was so touched that I celebrated the event in photography. I also noodled around with lighting.




First on the back porch with direct sun from behind.



Then on the shadowed front porch.



Where I also tried the 2x zoom.



Then into the dark living room for some flash work.



And the obligatory O'Keeffe tribute.



In-situ: my actual kitchen table.

(also proof we're STILL unpacking boxes.)


Similar shot, this one cropped (and successfully re-saved.)

I love memory cards; you can shoot to your heart's content and keep only the good stuff. I was so pleased with how these turned out that I bought photo paper. The hardcopies are equally good.
