About the Image(s)

I came across a huge, bushy vine of Moonflowers while visiting some demonstration gardens in my area, used to teach a Master Gardener program. I think the large, spiraled buds are interesting and beautiful. Processed in Lightroom Classic using a variety of masks on the subject and background to selectively edit; cropping, removing distracting elements, darkening the background, and bringing out more detail on the bud.

Equipment: OM 5 mark II, telephoto lens at 150 mm, ISO 400, f 4, 1/400 sec.
