Here I go with the red again

Posted by Marion (Nanaimo, BC, Canada) on 19 May 2008 in Plant & Nature and Portfolio.

Not processed in any way, just added borders. I am still not too impressed with the way my camera handles red, but other than that its a good camera. Maybe its the photographer??

I can't see a problem Marion, it looks wonderful to me, very pretty flowers.
I used to have trouble with blue flowers, I've got that sorted now purple flowers are not coming out quite as I would like.

the photographer did a good job although the red looks a little weird.

I really like it Marion. I think the red looks great. I love all the green leaves sticking out betweent he blooms - reminds me of Christmas!

I see what you mean about the red, Marion, but the beautifully sharp green redeems the photo!
What happens if you do process it a little, as in sharpening; does that help the edges of the red petals?

Shuva Brata Deb from Hyderabad, India

Hey with regards to handling red, did you have an option of setting the while balance in your camera? Adjusting that may help.

@Shuva Brata Deb: Thanks for the suggestion Shuva. I will try that next time. In the meantime I have edited the picture and will show it again in a couple of days.

Few of us are impressed with our cameras' way of handling strong reds and I often find that PP can make things worse. But this catches the blaze rather well, I think.
