Looking Back [Flowers]
Uploaded: February 11, 2005 11:00:48
Sometimes the first shot is the best :0) I brought this lonely calla lily home from Walmart set it on the dinning table and shot about 10-15 photos. This was the first and by far the best! Cross light from corner windows and back of dinning chair provided the background. I used the 100mm macro, RAW, ISO 400 minimal post process.
