White Amaryllis - Take2
by GlynM
Following on from my previous attempts, and two days later, I have had another go.
The Amaryllis now has 4 fully open heads which are now all white. I have also changed the lens from the DA35 Macro ltd to the DFA100 Macro.
Pentax K-5 with the Samsung equivalent of the DFA100 Macro.
1/6sec, F18 and ISO200.
Shot against a black cloth background using a couple of 25W low energy daylight florescent lamps. One lower left and the other mid to upper right.
Raw file converted and tweaked in LR3.

I have to agree, the light on both flowers is super, i looked at the one on photobucket and the stamens and light are superb, i have to apologize for giving you tips when obviously you should be giving them to me.

Hi Maria - You don't need to apologise. It is always a learning exercise for me and it is really valuable to hear other people comments. I was not 100% happy with my first attempt and you made me think about what I could do to improve it.
Many thanks,
Glyn
