The Yellow Symphonyby ~richardxthripp

Photography / Animals, Plants & Nature / Flowers, Trees & Plants

Yellow flowers from an roofless flower shop; you can find good photos anywhere. I took this from a low angle, so you can't see any people or products in the background; just the sky.

The Yellow Symphony at my website, Brilliant Photography by Richard X. Thripp.

Canon PowerShot A620, 1/1000, F4.5, 7.3mm, ISO50, 2007-06-08T14:23:26-04, 2007-06-08_18h23m26

Source image. I spent a while changing the colors; I was debating between cooler blue tones or warm red and yellow, finally choosing the latter after comparing. There was an out-of-focus flower that creeped into the bottom-right of the frame that I cloned out, and I applied contrast enhancements and a subtle glowing effect. I let the sky go to pure white and the shadowy jungle below the flowers to black, because those areas don't deserve detail.

heeyy I know these flowers

we have them in owr yard ow and I love em .
your photo is great because of the amazing angle

~richardxthripp Feb 3, 2008 Hobbyist Photographer

Thanks, Sara! It's the composition that makes the shot; none of my related photos would look good if we were looking straight down at the flowers.

yes u r right, but I had tried to take photos at this angle,(from below) its not as easy as it looks

mine didnt turn out so good . but I have taken some from the front view , they look good

maybe I will submit some of them

~richardxthripp Feb 10, 2008 Hobbyist Photographer

Good idea. I used my Canon PowerShot A620 for this, and it has a flip screen so you can see what the photo will be of without being in front of the camera. Can't do that on my new DSLR, but I get by.

Sunshine and flowers are the best

~richardxthripp Aug 31, 2007 Hobbyist Photographer

Thanks. Yeah, this one has been well-received.

~Kimantha333 Aug 31, 2007

I think all your piccys are

I still have piccys I put up last month that nobody's commented on

~richardxthripp Aug 31, 2007 Hobbyist Photographer

Thanks. When I posted more photos I didn't get many comments, so I must be doing something right... Sorry I haven't commented on any of your recent stuff; have just been replying to my own comments and posting photos here and there when I have time to come on.

~Kimantha333 Aug 31, 2007

Oh thats fine, I wasn't complaining about you to be honest. It just kinda perturbs me a little that people are like ooooh I love your critters then they don't comment on em

~richardxthripp Sep 1, 2007 Hobbyist Photographer

Yeah, guess people don't have much to say...
