Blooms Bursting......


Having improved as a photographer since I started blogging is an understatement.  Regardless of the number of years of practice, sometimes one thing can become difficult to photograph. This violet has been one of those things. Somedays I just could not get the lighting correct to get a focused shot.  Other days, I felt the camera was not happy with the flowers being white.  The automatic camera doesn't like white as light seems to be reflected off of it. In spite of the continual battle, I did get a good shot of it with this one.  I had side natural lighting and also a dining room light on at the same time. The natural light was stronger and gave me pure, true colors. I bet I had 6 or more shots that I had to just trash in this one last try. My wife's camera has died now.  We will be looking for a bigger and better camera to share.

Pretty flowers and nice photo, Larry.
Sometimes I make good pictures, sometimes, no.

That is a lovely shot, Larry. It was nice to see on this dull and dismal day, I haven't got the hang of my camera, but confess to leaving it in the drawer more often than out.
