About My grandaughter Cydney (Subject of 1,000s of my photographs!) turned 7 years old yesterday. Marlyce and I were there . . . and (Suprise) we had our cameras. The tree in Heather's front yard was filled with blooms. Don't know what kind of tree . . . but the blooms were spectacular. Here is one. In camera crop - this is as shot!! Focus on the very extended stamen . . . petals behind.

I was wondering if it had something to do with Gayle...saw her flag too. Then, being the detective that I am, I sniffed around the list of flags...viola, mystery solved! Nice, you civic minded friend!

Me yell...NEVER!

Later...Robin

Well Michele . . . I'm glad you asked! As it happens . . . I usually try to crop 'In Camera'. But I always have to set white balance . . exposure, etc., anyway, since I shoot only in RAW images. BTW . . . that PINK comment was cute ;) !
While it's good to 'Get it right' IN the camera . . . it's fine to make it right OUT of the camera too. But I do get what point you were making.......glad to see it's happening more and more to you..... Sometimes confusion is good, huh?
:)

Thanks very much for the ever so kind comments Kelly! I must admit that this tree was literally covered with these blossoms . . . and that I have no idea yet what it is . . . though I think I'll find out soon enough!

Hey Robin:

No, I'm not a man without a country and still love the USA . . . just showing a little support for another friend you're likely familiar with, Gayle Hardman (http://www.usefilm.com/donor/gayle
). She's making her photographic equivalent of Doctors without Borders stand here for photographers without borders. I thought I'd do volunteer work for her concept on ocassion . . . and flip it and my flag so that my country doesn't feel neglected either. Sort of like doing a volunteer shift and then getting off-duty! :)

I'll mention to Cydney your Happy Birthday - hopefully she won't be mortally crushed by your earlier oversight!! LoL! (Uhhhhh . . . just kidding . . . don't yell at me)!

Be well my friend!
Regards,
Doyle I <~~~~~

No new equipment here . . . just had to stray from the teeming pools of waist high children to shoot this on the tree. Thanks!

Stunning and wonderful, Doyle, but don't know what this blossom is either. Great work!:) Did you get my e-mail?

Michele Carlsen Michele Carlsen   {K:146013} 10/3/2006
Love the color ...PINK right ?
Regardless I just love it .... great crop and BTW don't you just 'not know what to do' when you actually get an image & you have no enhancements or adjustments to make ???
Or is this a norm for YOU ?

I've been managing to get them more often ... and I don't know what in the heck to do about it ..... I do leave it alone... and try to appreciate I've done something 'right' . . . but wondered if you got the strange feeling too...?

Michele~

Botanical name: Big Bright Pink Flower
Wow color Doyle...Crayola calls it "Hot Pink"! Like the centered composition, great detail at the pof, and you handled the exposure quite nicely sir...new equipment at work? It's a keeper my friend!
Take care...Robin

Amazing Doyle- so lovely and strong. The colours and closeness brilliant. And so full! Exactly the right spirit for a 7 year birthday. (Hope she enjoyed her day as much as you and Marlyce did!).
