Red Maple Flower 2
Posted by Anita (West Nottingham, United States) on 27 February 2008 in Plant & Nature.
This is the same flower as in yesterday's photo, but in more focus. I wanted you to be able to see how beautiful this little, fleeting flower, is.

I welcome your honest critique, especially if they will improve my photography.
If I have made a mistake in a flower identification, please let me know!
A few words about the EXIF data, beginning in April when I began using Nikon D300 and the Sigma 105mm macro: My new camera and macro lens record the relative or effective f stop, not the one seen on the lens. For an explanation of this, go to the next to the last question at this site.

Good morning Anita,
I liked the other image but this image is stronger! Well done :-)

Yea... I'd have preferred yesterday's image too, but well done nonetheless!

Very pretty - I think I preferred yesterday's a little more (the out of focus adds a dimension of softness that goes well with the delicate nature of the flower).

Well, I can see from the comments that you've intrigued us all. I'd agree with two of those above that yesterday's was the more interesting because it had an aura of mystery about it. This is pretty, too, of course, but yesterday's had beauty plus some magical extra. Just my opinion.
