Backlit Crocuses [Graphics, Details & Flowers]
Uploaded: June 01, 2004 19:41:16
I deliberately selected a shallow dof because they have a translucence I like when doing so. I also wanted to highlight the centers as the yellow contrasts so well with the purple translucent colors. 1-1000th/sec, f:3.3, -1 EV, handheld but on a beanbag
