Red Gerberas
by dawn

I know we've seen alot of gerberas lately, but they are so beautiful
and these were such a lovely shade of fire engine red, and since I
had a new macro lens sitting at home, I couldn't resist. Framed as
shown--no cropping--very little PS work--but it is in sRGB.

Do you EVER take a bad pic? These are beautiful, such rich texture on the petals.

Beautiful.. You really should be selling these pictures Dawn. Your flowers are always so well composed and vivid.

Those petals look fabulous, like velvet. Nice job, so beautifully sharp!

Lovely reds - I like the almost wax-like texture

I could see that your light is coming from the right side and it's taking away from the green stems. Other than that it's a beautiful shot.

Black background works well on this one Dawn. Wonderful colour.

I love this! We only get Gerberas here at this time of year, so I take lots of photos of them now.... :) These are lovely. They have such expressive stems.
