Bleeding L, I wish I hadn't said anything now as this shot will get more votes than mine:-)
This looks great, the exposure looks spot on & the most important thing is...........It's a really good picy. Well done Y:-)

Yvonne, this is really nice now, you can see the veins in the petals with this close up. Is this a macro lens? Nice shot! :-) CJ

Nice yvonne. And based on the dialogue here I learned a lot about exposure. I appreciate the candor here and how it was handled.

I had these in the spring in the woods where I grew up. Brings back good memories. Didn't see the first revision, however this one is nicely done.

This is really lovely Yvonne. Didn't see the earlier version but I like this one very much. And the white looks great. Ann

Replaced with just the flower. Yvonne

Yep, your are right. I actually was shooting that shot with my attention on the leaves. I did not even notice that petal blown to smisereens. Thanks, Rod. (brat)

You should have exposed for the brightest part of the scene Y then you won't blow out the whites. When you have a smallish white subject with direct sunlight & shadow you know you will have problems, especially when you can see such detail in the shadows on the flower. You can't really meter this shot too well so you should have exposed on the sunlit grass or other object & then locked the exposure & recomposed & shoot:-) Good try...................................for a girl:-)

Very pretty Yvonne, I love Trilliums. You did a good job of photographing the white flower in the bright sun - I usually end up with BHs! :-) CJ
