About the Image(s)

I was hiking in the woods earlier this month searching for lady slippers. After about an hour with no luck I headed for the trail exit when I came upon a few Columbine plants. At least my journey was a partial success. This was shot with my Canon R5 with 24-105 lens at 105. 1/250 sec because there was a bit of wind at f/4 (it was dark in the woods) with an ISO of 2500. Processed in Lightroom using, of course, noise reduction. Also clarity, white balance (warmed it up a bit) and added a bit of green tint. Used some radial gradients to make the flower pop and background fade. A bit of sharpening too.
