I remember at one point someone posted in the gallery, from Point Clear, Mississippi (or somewhere around there) which is very close to Fairhope. I can't find him on here now, so hopefully he'll be there Sat.
the forecast for Saturday here will put the weatherproofing to test - cold and wet bah!

However, I think the shot would be improved with a better composition -- the flower being directly behind the other doesn't create any flow or eyeline. On the diagonal would be better, IMO.
(and maybe see a bit of stem. it looks a little disembodied as is.)

I'll be doing it in Fairhope, Alabama (south Alabama on Mobile Bay) with my mother.
Would love to see pictures from this group if you're taking part!

Visited a few summers ago and absolutely loved the entire place.

Loved his face in this one, because it shows how much fun we had that day.
Although I had to fiddle with PP fill light, I managed some detail in the splash. Not razor sharp but I'm happy:
f13, 300mm, 1/1000sec, iso800
Wish I had some good wipeout pics, but we were moving too slow!

I'm interested to know: for this type of subject do you purposely shoot wider, then crop? Kudos for getting the entire wings and tails in the frame, which is why I asked. (that may seem a dumb question but it's sometimes a struggle for me)

I took the time to experiment, which I enjoyed.
