July 2026 - Our Garden in Bloom
About the Image(s)
Our lily is blooming full force, seems like all the plants are budding at the same time. Taken with my Sony a6500, 90mm lens at f5.6, ISO400, 1/350 sec processed in ON1 Photo RAW. Blurred some of the background, added contrast, vibrance and a little of the glow filter. Did some cropping, but wanted a grouping shot so I didn't go in any tighter.

I agree - it doesn't need too tight a crop - the group of lilies is interesting. I would actually like to see more of the lily on the left, rather than having it cut off. I would also remove the spot of white light on the lower lily. I like your light-touch processing treatment. It's great seeing images of flowers, reminding me that even in the depths of winter, spring and summer are just around the corner! Posted: 07/13/2026 22:50:53
