Macro's in the garden

Unread post by Hakanie »

Hello.

I want to share some pictures from my garden, summer of -09.
Both shots with KM 5D and Tamron 90mm /2.8.

Nice shots, but the first needs a bit of brightness, imo.

Lovely colours in both Hakanie - but I agree with the Doc about a bit more brightness in the first.
Nex 5, Nex 6 (IR), A7M2, A99 and a bunch of lenses.

Thanks for the replies.
I've added a bit more brightness. Does it look better?

Lovely shots, Hakanie! I prefer the original version of the red flower. The tone curve doesn't have to be stretched all the way out, and the lower contrast background of the first is much more pleasing.

While the re-done flower 'pops' a bit with the brightness, I think I prefer the demur first version a bit better.
