It has been very cold here at my house the past couple days. Last night after Brad went to bed, the sun was still shining so I went out and snapped some photos.
My house is partially hidden from the sun by trees so this photo was taken in complete shade.
The backdrop is bedrock. My bulb flowerbed is right in front of rock.
I love this flower. I forgot where I got this. Home Depot comes to mind....I think I bought it there. It has probably been coming back up for the past four years.
Here is the after photo:
I edited in Lightroom 3 Beta 2. I used my 50mm f/1.8 lens on my Canon Rebel T1i.I basically boosted the saturation, vibrancy, brightness, clarity, and blacks.
Then, I cropped it.
Sometimes I don't get composition the way I want it. I tend to be a little impatient.
I felt the flower needed to be more in the left of the photo.
What do you think?
I like the edit. the colors stand out way more. Nice job!
