A vertical choice today. I love experimenting with low natural window light, this was 3 seconds, f18.

As usual being the wealth of information that I am, I have no clue as to the name of this garden flower but it looked kind of cool so...

I think the 'looking kinda cool' is the most important part :) and I really love the color. Nice lighting and detail and I like the vertical framing. TFS

Beautiful close up. The colours are lovely against the dark background.

Hi Scott,
Great close up, superb light and colours. 3 seconds and f/18 is quite unique, but you managed it well. The dark background enhances the flower perfect. Great posting Scott!

Ciao Scott


It is a beautiful view in light so light!
A simple composition, but the beauty is
often the simplest things ...
The lilac flower is nicely contrast with the black bacground.

Nice shot of this unknown flower. I like the vertical composition and the natural light in this shot. Like the other post the black BG really lets the natural color and beauty of the flower stand out. Nice work Scott.

dear Scott,
quiet and illusionary lilies,
delicate light and color are very graceful in this dark space.
and figures of flowers are so elegant, that I can hear those little voices from their horns.
thank you for your excellent picture.

Natural light specialy when its a bit dark like here is nice but also hard to control
you kept the dtails of the upperpart of the flower well,good combining the dark background.
