Encircled with Gold [Photography Contest Flower Photos]
Uploaded: July 08, 2005 01:22:35
Taken in early evening with my Tamron 90mm f/2.8 macro lens. I've only used this lens on 2 occasions so far, and on both, I've noticed that it sometimes seems to produce a blueish colour cast--or maybe it's just me doing something wrong! Anyway, I rather liked the blueish cast in this image, so I didn't try to eliminate it. Aperture priority; ISO 400; f/7.1, ss 1/100

Thank you so much for your very generous compliment, Daniel. I appreciate it very much. Incidentally, I belong to a couple of camera clubs here in Toronto (The Toronto Camera Club and The Toronto Guild for Photographic Arts), so if you belong to one or another local club, it's very likely that we'll run across each other some time. #1588406Daniel Diaz July 13, 2005
Your welcome Gerda. No clubs yet, maybe when I get a little better I'll think about joining. Cheers!! #1588430Ermanno Radice July 13, 2005

Thank you so much, Lori, for your kind compliment! I'm delighted you enjoyed this image. And your note to Daniel is exactly right. Clubs ARE for all levels of photographers, and you can really learn a lot in clubs, too. I've learned a great deal since I joined the two I belong to. #1641036Kristi A. Howson August 20, 2005
