1/200, f/13, ISO 4000 at 150 mm (FF)
Picture taken at 9:11 PM May 23rd, important for the light. A rose from the front yard of my neighbor. I saw the light, I took my camera and spent some time with the flowers. I find the colors just great (Thanks Nature).
I think this is the month of the roses...
LR: correction of noise and Auto selection. I change the format from 3:2 to 4:3. I tried the square format but I wanted to keep more space around the flower. I used a mask of the background and decrease the light a little, but a lot the texture and clarity to soften this background.

Hi Vincent: A perfect Rose flower to photograph against a natural out of focus background in soft lighting. Glad you darkened down the background somewhat, I think you could even darken it down even more than you have. In doing so would make the Rose flower stand out even more than it does now.

I'd second what Murphy stated. The color is so vibrant that tiny bit of a darker BG would make it even pop more. Posted: 10/06/2025 16:32:17
