[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This certainly is not the best shot ever but I am just messing with the camera settings again and trying to learn how to get darker b/g to the shots. This was taken in the middle of a quite sunny day so the darker b/g seems to have worked to a certain extent. The house in the background is offputting as are the leaves that come over the petal.

What I do like about this is the colour of the lillies but tbh, thats about it!!!!!

Let me know what you guys think.

Delightful to see that there are two lily pictures one above the other in the gallery :)
The colours and details in yours are just great and I like the unusual PoV although I think I'd have tried to avoid including the house.
Nice tight composition

This is lovely, the colors and detail are excellent. I also like the inclusion of the sky. Good job! TFS and have a happy day!

Hi Sparkles

Like the aspect, the flowers in close, and part of the house in the background. Makes the flowers look humungus(?) (or just really big lol). Nice and sharp, and good use of fill-flash.

hm

Twinkletoes,

this is a very good image, life-like colours and good angle of shot.

Regards C.D.

hi karen.
these lilies are huge. they're even bigger than your house!!!

only joking.

personally, i would darken the bg in photoshop. it might be easier?

keep on experimenting. ido and it can be fun.

Hi, Karen! Thank you for stopping by and for the kindly comment! I really like the darker b/g and the contrast with the light flowers in front. Perfect colours and POV. TFS
