Because of this cold weather, I am hesitating to go outside with my camera. So my alternative is to buy some flowers and shoot them at home. My florist is happy to see me every other day..I bought this rose and it looked perfect just the way it is. I tried to shoot it with white, black, natural backgrounds to see what works. I also shoot it in macro mode as macro is some thing I would like to pursue in future. I loved the background as it is much more dramatic but it looks staged.. Next fav of mine is macro shot. But a lot of people told me is that white background is bringing out the delicate essence of the flower.
Sunset Beach @Cape May
A few weeks ago, I had gone out with a meetup group to do some star trail photography at Cape May. The organizers and I were the only ones showed up for this event so I got to spend a lot of time with the experienced photographers and picked their brains for tips and tricks.. They let me use the filters they brought. I had seen one the most beautiful and stunning sunsets that day.. Too bad I did not get to do the star trails for that's for another day.. [nggallery id=11]
