My DBF brought home some lovely flowers to celebrate our 100 month anniversary last week (awwwwwww!) A few days after, several lilies burst into bloom in the vase, allowing me to experiment with different aperture values, thus controlling the depth of field.
Shutter speed: 1/15 (wow! still fairly clear...) f/5.6 (lowest I could get with this lens, and the distance I had to be to remain in focus), ISO 800 (75 watt kitchen light bulb), focal length: 154mm (me, standing on a kitchen chair).
An intense intimate view of this flower. The color is so rich and saturated.
ReplyDeleteThat is so pretty. Congrats on the celebration!
