Challenge: Yellow III (Advanced Editing IV)
Camera: Canon EOS-10D
Lens: Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 USM Macro
Location: princes street gardens
Date: Apr 1, 2006
Aperture: 10
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/125
Galleries: Macro, Floral
Date Uploaded: Apr 2, 2006

 Taken in Princes Street gardens as the yellow against the purple and white of the petals caught my eye. I was having to battle against the wind to manage a sharp shot in focus, hence the fast shutter speed. I used an aperture of 10 because I wanted all of the yellow stamens to be in focus but to keep the rest of it softer, so your eye rested on the yellow more.

I just cloned a few dust specks and then adjusted the contrast and intensity to bring the colours out against the white more.

Very, very nice picture, but I don't see any yellow. Only orange.
