OK, as usual, I put off taking photos till the evening before it's due. I was too tired to look around and find anything original to photograph, so I pointed the camera at the slightly late-blooming tulips in my backyard. Sorry.... more tulip pictures ......... SO last month!
I put my Nikon D90 on a tripod and remembered to set my white balance halfway through. It made a LOT of difference! The background with WB set on AUTO was blue-ish and set on CLOUDY made the background nice and green.
I used Aperture priority f/5.6, 1.6 seconds, ISO 200 shot at 150mm.
I did my metering trials and the winner was the matrix (full image) metering. The photo just looked more pleasing and bright.
Love this! Composition is great. Love seeing the individual water droplets on the tulips. Very crisp.
ReplyDeleteHow can anyone ever tire of seeing tulips in bloom?!!! Great photo... I love the way the photo catches your eye on the front tulip and trails off... It reminds me of walking down a path....
