Dan, when faced with harsh light like that, and something you really want to
shoot, I'd suggest using something to diffuse the light. I have some
circular cloth diffusers, not very expensive, that can be propped or hand
held that will greatly soften the light. But you could use almost any piece
of white cloth, just as long as it can shield your subject from direct sun
rays.

Thanks, Rick.
Yes, it is a bit harsh. The flowers that are accessible tend to be
those in the brightest light. I just processed this quickly, and, as
you suggest, I need to process it a bit.

I like it, Dan, but the light is a bit harsh, and parts of the flower
(especially in the center) look blown out. Did you shoot in RAW so that
you can recover some highlights?
Cheers,
Rick
