A Red Sunflower

View Large. Comments/critiques welcomed. Thank you

Very beautiful. I've never seen or heard of a red sunflower. You lighting is very beautiful and I love the cropping. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Laura -

 

Thank you for the compliments. I play a lot with flash distance and f stop to get the color saturation and lighting I like. (Velvia 50 is my favorite film, a dead give-away that I like rich color). This photo is not cropped. I try to frame my photos as "perfectly" as possible when I shoot. Some turn out more perfectly than others... : )

Beautiful flower image. i like the colour and its strong character. Regards.
