[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I am still experimenting . . . this beautiful flower appeared in my garden and I thought it would make a good subject to practice on. I am having trouble sharpening though, I have been using Smart Sharpen in PS CS2 and I changed some of the settings and I can't get it to go back to the default settings.

"The tuberose (Polianthes tuberosa) is a perennial plant of the agave family Agavaceae, extracts of which are used as a top note in perfumery. The common name derives from the Latin tuberosa, meaning swollen or tuberous in reference to its root system. It consists of about 12 species.

The tuberose grows in elongated spikes up to 45 cm (18 in) long that produce clusters of fragrant waxy white flowers that bloom from the bottom towards the top of the spike. It has long, bright green leaves clustered at the base of the plant and smaller, clasping leaves along the stem." Ref: Wikipedia.

Hi Jeanne,

Great experiment . . I have similar problem when shooting the white and light is not proportion . . I lose some details of it . .
I like the composition in diagonal position of the frame and darker BG . .

Tfs,

Hello Jeanne,
It is so frustrating when the programs don't respond as wanted. I too have problems with CS2 this morning.
The scent of the tuberoses are so pungent. I just love it. I like the diagonal composition against the dark BG and the lighting is excellent.
Well done, Joni

I love tuberose and when I see your photo I imagine I can smell the beautiful scent. You have good lighting here and you have composed the shot well. Congratulations on a successful image.

I like the way you have isolated the tuberose with the background. Lucky you with a garden containing flowers like this. TFS, Barry
