I'm sorry if I have posted this image before.... http://www.flickr.com/photos/bladt/2828279/
I entered a local competition with this. The judge didn't like it - at all. He said the lighting was bad. That's what bothers me: Is it really wrong to try to just photograph something the way you see it? As I opened my front door one morning in late August (the day after I received my new *ist D), I noticed this flower, which I believe it is a weed, not a "culture" flower. I shot it right there - from my doorway - as I saw it - that fine morning. My front door is facing east, so naturally, it's back lit! The almost-black background is just the shadow-side of my hedge - noting artificial/arranged. All the best Jens Bladt mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hjem.get2net.dk/bladt
