Its funny. The preview thumbnail looks like the flower should be.
It does look like i underexposed on these, so there in may be part of
my problem. I was underexposed a bit on the yellow ones, and they look
fine.
I have a show today, but the first part of next week looks good,
weather wize, so i'
I'll try that. The flowers will be out for a while, so i have time.
Thanks

Yep, when a subject is mostly red or blue, resolution goes down by up to
a quarter (unless you are using a Foveon sensor). Up to a half if the
subject is mostly green

I've always attributed it to a Bayer thing. I got the same thing when
I photographed a bunch of deep red roses with light painting and they
looked awful. Like oversaturated and muddled, like its missing some
resolution or something. I'll bet really blue things have the same
issue.
On 7/5/08,
They look pretty good on my laptop. These results could certainly be improved
considerably in post.

Red is less reflective than orange or yellow, so you're probably underexposing.
Deep red is considerably below gray card value in refetivity. Meter the light
off green grass or another near neutral surface, then expose at that reading.

Here is an example of what i get from a red flower.
The reds look way over saturated, the middle of the flower is a peach
colour, but you can barely see that colour at all.
I get this alot with red tulips and some

In the days of film it was well-known that blue flowers would often
photograph with a magenta cast. I don't remember the reason, but
perhaps something similar holds these days on digital sensors for red
- at the opposite end of the spectrum.
