February 1 2004:
Tulip by Night

Here is today's offering. I just hope this tulip appreciates all the attention I have bestowed on her. I must have taken about 60 pictures of her to get the desired effect and then she spent quite a while being framed. She would also like to thank the Helpline from the bottom of her petals;-)

Canon EOS 300D Digital Rebel
1/160s f/8.0 at 80.0mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Beautiful, Ray, I like the soft lighting from above, and the droplets on the petals. Great shot!

Great color and lighting.

Wow!! I love, love, love the lighting on this. It looks like it is coming from inside the flower. Excellent job!!

Lovely Ray, just lovely

Well, a beauiful flower deserves all that attention! She is positively glowing!! Your lighting efforts are really paying off big time with fabulously dramatic images, Ray! Also the large pink petals in the frame really make this a striking composition too. I love it!

A lovely image for a dreary sleety day.

The lighting and color is just perfect, Ray. It's definitely a wall hanger.

What a great start for February. Those other shots could probably be reused for other projects. But this one is it!

Beautiful Ray! The lighting makes her very mysterious.

Lovely Ray. I think the quality you have here is subtlety. This is something I lack and will have to work on. Well done.
