Photographic Study: Pink Gerber Daisy
January 8th 2010 1 minute to read
My boyfriend Keith bought me these flowers to give me something to photograph as it’s just too cold to take the baby outside.
I would appreciate your thoughts, comments, even respond with a photo of a flower!

You’ve got some nice shots here! The last two are my favorites.
Very lovely! I’m curious why you don’t post your EXIF information on Flickr though.
What lens did you use?
I really like the softness of that last photo!

@Cheryl, thank you!
@Lynda I would love to, the only reason is that the data doesn’t SAVE if I copy the photo. See I create the round edge, the paste the photo onto a new image with the background color I use on OSN (lol does that make sense?) the EXIF doesn’t transfer with the image. I suppose I would have to go back and manually enter it all in from the original?
I used my 50mm and my 105mm lenses, ISO 400. Natural light from the bedroom window.
You and that camera are a match made in heaven. That is some really, really beautiful stuff right there.

Lovely! Here’s mine (which is totally different): http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=37944647
You can’t just add a layer below the photo and fill it with the background color? That way you wouldn’t have to lose your EXIF data.
This is my fave gerber daisy shot: http://www.flickr.com/photos/antigone/532518067/

Those colours are to die for! The last two especially deserve a frame and wall space!
@Lisa Marie thank you so much!
@Tasha your photo is lovely!
@Anna I guess because I had been doing it the overly complicated way forever lol. I will have to re-train myself to do it the easy way!
I love your photo, you’re right, they are just happy flowers!
@Melodie we are thinking of redoing the bathroom and having pink/bright pink be the accent color and you are so right, those would make awesome prints and really work well with the “new/eventual” bathroom color scheme!
Aw so pretty, really well done :)

Those are some beautiful shots. I really love the color. There is a really nice subtle vintage feel in the photographs. I could see some of those as beautiful prints to hang on a wall.
Gorgeous. That about sums it up! Oh, and I love the Twilight books in the background. :)
Thank you so much! LOL I can totally tell who the Twilight fans are!
