 Cleaning some files of my HD...just doing the 700 or images from the 2007 PHS Philadelphia Flower Show. Flower names elude me until I know them. No clue again, though I know the pink one in this I've seen around town. It's a vine flower of some sort....also lily like. Oh well. The blue and yellow, no where near a clear.
After the first day at the show and shooting at ISO-200 with the 50MM F2.8 Macro, I went back with the Nikon 18-70 and the Sigma 70-300 and shot ISO-800...and the noise is overbearing. Full strength NI was used on this.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Thanks for all the great comments. I'm just happy something from the flower show turned out...it was not very productive, so to speak. Anyway, we will confirm that the floating pink flower is a Mandevilla....thx, Teresa ( Tlemetry )!! Still not sure about the purple/blue yellow audience flowers....

This is a beauty and I know the name but can't remember it now. Oh maybe it's a Desert Rose? I think I remember Crayon's color picture and this looks similar. Lovely as usual. I can't even tell you used NI on this, so good job!

You did very well with NI as I see no noise and the picture is in perfect focus. The pink flower does look suspended in mid air! Love your title.

Friggin awesome! Reminds me of a politician spouting off with a big ol' megaphone to all the little blue voters. :)

Color combination and composition makes this work. Daylight color and light looks great.
