Rainy Day Photowalk:  Kentlands Flowers

 

We have a rainy day in Maryland and it is good to add some color.  These photographs are part of our Imagination series and are also posted on my Imagination board on Pinterest.  The colors have been edited so all of them are different than their natural appearance. iPiccy.com, a free service, was used for the editing.

Please follow me on Pinterest and connect with me on Facebook and Flickr if you enjoy flower photography.  If you are new to Pinterest, it is also a great resource for recipes.

Have a wonderful week and be sure to have your camera in hand to capture the special moments that you will want to share.

Hi Roy, Don't be surprised if the man upstairs calls on you to come up with new color varieties. You did very well with the new colors.

Always take a very serious approach when working with your marketing photographs.  Every picture needs editing.  


When you are taking photographs for fun, like these, have some fun.  There are no restrictions on editing as much as your imagination will allow.

Roy,

Rainy days produce some great results as long as you compensate for the exposure. :)

Thanks so much for your comments.

Steve:  I just set the camera on automatic exposures and fire away.

Roy,

In low contrast, automatic works quite well. :)

It is sometimes a good practice to revisit old blogs and reblogs. We might even find some good ideas for current posts.
