Pic of the Day #566

Yet another picture from the yard at Grace’s grandparents’ house.

Where was this taken?

As has been the case in some other shots in this set, the for this picture was set a bit higher due to the amount of shade case about by the stand of very old trees in the yard. As a result, more was needed on the shot. In spite of that, managed to preserve most of the fine detail in the shot, and the on-export seems to have intensified things just a bit. I continue to be impressed by the improvements apparent in Lightroom 2.

Edit-wise, apart from what was already mentioned, I adjusted the green, red, and magenta saturations a little bit to bring out some of the details in this shot, but for the most part it stands on its own. Flowers make obliging subjects, and are often very intricate and beautiful (and thus fun to shoot). Certainly that is the case here.
