Went for a walk around the pond out in the country the other day, and as the sun was going down and behind the trees, these little unknown flowers were taking on a glow of their own.
The backdrop was turning to liquid gold as the sun was setting. If you stepped off of the path and towards the pond, there would be a drop off of about 2ft in height. I got down low with the tripod and with the gold colored water as my backdrop and the sunlight behind me and through the trees. I liked the way that the flower was coming up the small incline and leaning towards me, which gave me a OOF stem near the bottom and coming into focus near the top. Numerous shots gave me a flat/smooth background, or a background with slightly OOF stems from other vegetation at pond side. I like the ones with the vegetation more prominent in the background, as it seemed to give more depth and the feel of being there. Maybe a little artsy nature, ........ but I like it!
