Re: PESO: It's Apple Blossom Time
Thanks Jack. I experimented a bit with the blossom brightness on the RAW image. Bringing down the white point doesn't gain anything other than a loss of "pop." These petals don't really show any detail other than what you can see here. They're quite smooth.

Re: PESO: It's Apple Blossom Time
Thanks Brian. I autofocused on the stamens of that central blossom. That kind of autofocus accuracy is a benefit of the K20D adjustment. With the K10D I would have manually focused this shot.
