Some wild flowers from today....
Posted By: GLThorne, 04-17-2007, 12:41 PM

While re-cooping from some surgery from yesterday, I thought I'd take a small walk outside and shoot something! The first one was with the Sigma 28-70 f/2.8 EX. The second and third were with the kit lens and the +4 filter. All were at the worst time of day, 2-3PM, full sunlight!! Exposure nightmare, at least for me.

Hope you enjoy.......

All three are really good, but the 2nd & 3rd really have that 3D effect going! I'd have a hard time choosing a favorite!

Nice shots, Greg. That EX quality really shines thru. Makes me want to work more on my Bokeh. Freddy

Really like the composition of the first two. Exposure on all three is perfect! Did you do a lot of adjusting in PP?

Nice and simple. Looks like even flowers in the Carolinas are behind Texas'!

Thanks guys and girls for the comments.

Salty, the first I did no PP and did more in the 3rd than I did in the 2nd. Being on pain medicine, I didn't have the camera set up right and wasn't shooting in RAW. Got real lucky!!! Thanks for your positive comments.

Much appreciated, from all of you!
