About the Image(s)
Sometimes you only have to go out your back door to catch some beauty. Sony III, Tamron 28-70 2.8 lens, ISO 400, 1/250, f3.2. Processing in Lightroom with use of some brushes to tone down spots in the background.

You have a great subject in it's prime. You might have tried closing down your lens a little to get more sharpness throughout the bloom. I don't do any editing in Lightroom so I don't know your options in masking, but it looks like you had a hard brush when you were selecting the area to tone down. I usually add a little softness to the brush when I do this to make the edge less obvious. Posted: 03/17/2025 07:18:53
I love iris and this is a beautiful one. I agree with Dennis about switching to a softer brush. Nice job. Posted: 03/19/2025 14:04:03
The Iris and patterns really pop. Nice shot! Posted: 03/21/2025 22:26:59
I could feel the beauty of the flower. Although it is Wild Iris, your capture made it very gentle, soft and creamy. Posted: 03/25/2025 07:49:21
