Logan M- Lone Orange Canna Lily


I took this on September 2 behind my house. I took this with my iPhone 4s because my camera was broken. This is a picture of one of my canna lilies behind my house after an intense thunderstorm. I boosted the contrast and saturation to help define and bring out the colors. I also boosted the sharpness and the definition. I did this to make the fainter lines in the flower more visible and pop out. I would love to go back and take some more pictures with some better clarity and change the aperture to help keep the focus in the foreground.

I like this photo because of the flowers brightness and how the object is on focus and the background is faded out to bring out the true texture of the flower.

i really like the way the DOF is in this picture. it works really well because it takes the focus off the background and puts more focus on the flower. I think the way you made the colors more vivid is done really well, because even the water droplets have color. i like the mood of this photo too.

This photo stands out a lot. I really like the water droplets on the flower. I also like how the orange color stands out in the picture. The background being blurred out also has a cool effect on this photo. Overall this is a very nice photo and it gives a warm feeling.

I like the saturation of this photo and the clarity of the flower, especially the water droplets. The Depth of field is very nice, the background is just enough out of focus as to not be distracting, but just in focus enough to tell what it is. The color of the flower is beautiful.

This is a really nice photo! The boost that you added really helps to make the orange of the flower pop. The added droplets of water add to the tone of the picture. Nice job!
