Ritrato Recall: Petal first.
This, my first favorite petal-istic flower portrait. I remember setting this as my phone's wallpaper because I am proud of this one!
I love the color, the sharpness, the composition...and simply everything about it! This makes me happy whenever I see it. Many people appreciate it too.
2010, still borrowing my brother's camera for some cool-loving-self-and-camera feeling. Experimenting the composition using the automatic modes of my bro's classic D40. It's one of the best cameras I held, I tell you! Plus it's solid 50mm f/1.8 that really blows me away with its superb sharpness! The camera, and lens are still alive!!! Alive 6 years and counting! :)
Truly as my photography friends share, a flower is an all-time favorite subject. And I never thought that this sincere grandma's flower in the garden would give a turn-around in my life...in my photography life!
