Picture of the Day 4 – Fiery Tulip

Picture of the day 4 My friend Robyn sent me tulips for my birthday. I like the fieriness of this one and set out to take some macro photographs. I put the flower arrangement by my giant livingroom window. It was bright overcast with sheers covering the window. Because I had to get so close to the flowers, my body blocked some of the light so I held my large bounce card overhead to pump some light into the flower. I set my Canon PowerShot digital camera to Auto and clicked 20 or so pictures. I liked this one best because of the contrasty petals and the little pop of green.

[...] Day 18 was my gratuitous flower shot of the project. Everyone’s allowed at least one! The sun and the colors were so beautiful in my garden. I just couldn’t resist. This was taken on automatic with the macro setting on — my new favorite! [...]
