On the day that I shot these photographs, I challenged myself. It was a dull, damp, dank, gray day and I wanted to see if I could go and possibly find something nice to take a picture of, despite the weather. The sky wasn't interesting. The trees weren't interesting. However, the grass I was standing on had little droplets of water, fore it was sprinkeling. I got down low and took this photograph. In iPhoto, I made it black and white, increased the contrast and sharpness, and blurred the edges to try to give the viewer a feeling of dampness, like the weather on that day. Furthermore, the blurred edges make the very crisp and clear water droplets on the middle clover stand out. After taking this photograph on that day, I've never let the weather get in my way from hunting for beautiful subjects.

This is a really nice shot. I like the depth of focus and how the clover in the middle is the subject. The black and white looks better than the colour, but it looks a little too dark. You did a good job with the focus, and I love the overall composition of the shot. Keep shooting!
ReplyDeleteI love these pictures. The subject is interesting because of the tight crop. They are in excellent focus as well, which really adds to it. I don't know if I like the black and white or color better. The black and white puts off a nice mood, but the color in the other one looks really nice.
