Fantastic capture Janice

Loved the contrast of white subject and dark b/g.
The details are great!very nicely composed, the leading lines are excellent!

Good use of narrow DOF to focus on the f/g

Kia ora Janice,
A superb capture of this wild white lily. The shallow DOF creates a special effect of perfect sharp front and a blurred rear of the calyx. The dark background enhances the beauty of this flower.
Great post my dear.

Good Morning Janice,

This is one of the most artistic shots that I ever remember you posting. The narrow dof is a classic for demonstrating the sharp f/g focus and blurred b/g. It makes the striped textures so prominent and eye-catching as it is contrasted with the blurred b/g and dark surround.
The simple frame complements the shot.

Have a good day,
Bev :-)

Hi Janice,
This is so beautiful. I can not believe they grow wild in your garden! I would LOVE to have these flowers here- a bit harder to grow. A very nice and well composed shot. Good focus on the fg with nice natural colors. Very pleasing. TFS Julie

Hi Janice,
I can see this one hanging in a gallery or in the reception of some flash office block.
Beautiful presentation and wonderful contrast of the three basic colous - black, white and gold.
I think you could sell this one
cheers

Such a common sight on road sides almost a weed but your presentation has displayed it as a beautful bloom.

Wonderful work.
