All four flowers are now in bloom, and another bud is coming up! It was so beautiful to look at in the sunlight. I love having flowers in the middle of winter.
Hi Lindsay! I took the picture in my living room. I didn't do anything special to create the black background, but I did try a couple of different angles and exposures. For this particular picture, I exposed using the Spot meter vs the Matrix Meter (I think in Canon-speak that is Evaluative metering). I think I took 4 or 5 pictures, and this one was the only one I kept.
Did you take that photo?? If so, how did you create the black background?? Absolutely beautiful! Mine should be blooming soon.

I absolutely love it when the black background happens naturally! I just can't figure out how to recreate it! Great shot!
ReplyDeleteOh my, that is just beautiful, Shirley! Like Lindsay, I want to know how you got the background to be black?
