veiny flower petals


This flower has (obviously) five petals, and upon closer scrutiny, each petal has five primary veins of color. Nested fives!

This flower was in the shade and with auto wb (which I had set), the white was very blue. I manually tweaked the color quite a bit to make the flower look as I remembered it.

Daily Shoot Assignment: Today's number is 5. Make a photo that illustrates the number in some way, either literally or abstractly. ds281

mirrored reflection, redux


Myself and a crepe customer are reflected in the curve of the pear soda bottle, and our reflection is mirrored on the top half of the same curve. Sky in the background. All of this also appears on the boysenberry soda bottle too, with some blur.

One reason I like this picture is because the glass is a dark brown, unlike many of the other dailyshoot submissions for this assignment.

Make a photograph of something made out of glass. Be sure to go for interesting reflections or highlights. ds280
