The image as it is a very nice fine art photography, but, it sam to my, you purposely over exposed the red, witch usually turning yellow, and never able to turning back to red, then, desaturated the whole image to get this soft effect in color and contrast too. I like the composition but the color? The background very nicely washed of. Almost like a faded out polaroid shoot. Still, overall it is a nice fine art image.

If you don't mind the question, are you Polish? You name always given me a smile and thought. Your name means in Hungarian,  Leszek = I'm going to be. Leszek is a hungarian word of this meaning.

Greetings from Toronto.

Cheers.

Thank you very much for your visit and your opinion about my

photos.

I admit that I actually red flowers in the pictures make me

a lot of trouble.

Also I like to photograph poppies.

 

Yes I am Polish and I live in Poland.

I visit Hungary because of air shows which take place in Kecskemét.

Your country is very nice. My stomach often mentions the wonderful

kitchen and food ......

 

Greetings from over the Baltic Sea.

Leszek.

I find the desaturation of the poppies very pleasing in this image. It reminds me of the many images where people use 'lighting filters' so desaturate and basically change the 'tone' of the image. This is lovely and would look beautiful framed.

You have to remember, when you photograph red flowers, specially poppies in sunlight, you have to  under expose slightly the image to avoid the red to turn yellow. It is same as shooting snowy landscape, when you do the opposite,  over exposing the image, some time for a full 2 stops, to get the snow white and still get details. I hate those muddy grey snowy landscapes.

Cheers.
