happy

not feeling any creativity at all, this was a forced study in creative simplicity. in fact i tried to do light painting but it was a total fail and i am sweating like a dog even with minimal movement.

my camera is in dire need of WB calibration. how i know is my black background comes out as dark blue so i had to convert this to black and white and brush back the flowers' colours. must find my grey cards on the weekend.

five plus two's theme this week is "movement". won't you join in with a self portrait. https://365project.org/fiveplustwo/365/2019-07-10

This is beautiful Vikki. I wouldn't know how to go about calibrating the WB on my camera. My black backgrounds often look blue if I have too much light shining on them.

@merrelyn - you can get a grey card from your local photo store or just get a board either black, pure white or grey. take a photo of the card in all your camera's WB setting, with the card taking up the whole frame. for my canon 60D, which is the equivalent of your camera, i just take a few shots in WB in natural window light and it behaves properly.

I like how the bright yellow petals pop out from the black background and flower centers, Best viewed on the black background.

So lovely and striking against the black background. Very clever Vikki.

so glad to see your stuff when you are uninspired..have to tickle my brain cells to get going again.

oh well whatever you did to correct this, it came out very well. you may feel uninspired, but it isn't showing!

I think this has come out just absolutely beautifully! I love the composition, the way the color pops on the dark background, and the water droplets.
