Second Place - Flowers - June 2013

Orange Gerbera daisy against hot pink background, straight out of camera, no editing of any kind.
Trying my hand at in-camera impressionism ... The vibrant colors and dreamy feel
reminded me of the goofy, wonderful, intensely alive feeling of falling in love.

Exif: F Number: 2.8, Exposure Bias Value: 0.67, ExposureTime: 3/10 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 100, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 100.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS REBEL T2i
