[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Hibiscuses come in many colours and sizes and are ubiquitous in Jamaica where every garden hedge seems to be of hibiscus. The challenge is to capture the vibrancy of this common type in an image. So I sought out the backlighting of the early morning sun. Darkened and blurred the background in PhotoShop.

nice capture of this robust flower, TFS Ori

Hi,
how beautiful this flower is. There are perfect sharpness and deep colour. Sunny light highlighting flower's petals giving effect 3D.
TFS and regards

Bonjour John,
Très belle publication très bien composée, beaucoup plus artisitique et technique que scientifique, dans laquelle le sujet est bien valorisé par la finesse des détails et une bonne maitrise de la lumière.
A bientôt sur TN pour de nouvelles aventures.
