July 2026 - Closer to Paradise

About the Image(s)

Nikon Z 6 iii, Macro lens 105 mm, ISO 640, shutter 1/640, f/6.3.

I took this photo outdoors in natural light. I used a black piece of cardboard behind the subject and I blackened the background in Lightroom and then boosted the colors a little. I really don’t know much about post-processing yet.

Cindy,
I love how this flower pops off the black background! The arrangement of the petals make the plant look like it is a ballet dancer! I also like the warm oranges juxtaposed with the one bluish petal. Great shot!   Posted: 07/08/2026 14:09:11
