Did you do any "colour work" here?!? Or is "That Green" one of those naturally occuring "unnatural looking" colours (which I consistently notice when snapping away at red poppy flowers, for example)?

lovely series, btw, that you took at the garden....

Thanks bartowian. No colour work at all. I never do colour work on my pictures; it's too arduously to get acceptable results. I'm an oldfashioned photographer who is used to catch the picture how it really was at that time. All I do is considering the light of the early morning or the late evening which gives more intensive, warm and smooth colours.

This one was a pretty black flower (I don't remeber the exactly nomenclatur) what had a special "glimmer" in the sunlight.

Greetings Polytropos, Great flower picture. It almost looks like a negative the way the colors are. That's cool.

Cheers,

Rich
