Yippee some more poppies opened overnight and two of them are red - so pleased!! I took lots of shots this morning but it was very windy and quite difficult to get a good shot. I thought I had better have a try as they last such a short time.
Looks best against the black.
Many thanks for your great comments on yesterday's shots - very much appreciated as always!!
Pam, this is beautiful! It's so clear, the colors are rich, and the details/crop so balanced. Did you use HDR? Long exposure? I have so much trouble getting red flowers now to look like plastic!
@taffy thanks Taffy! No not HDR. It was very windy so I took a few shots very quickly and this was the best one for clarity. I had high ISO of 800 with aperture F/ 7.1 to get as much of the flower in focus. Raw photo processed in LR with minor adjustments. BTW I have bought upgrade to LR 5 -I just have to sort my library out first before I upload it. Too many pics I should have deleted!
