From Juergens popular photography blog:
I always love when I find a Floral Photography object that I can beautifully isolate against an attractive background. One of my last pictures of this kind I found in my Brookline neighborhood. Brookline is famous for being part of the finishing miles of the Boston marathon, the birthplace of J.F. Kennedy, 60 minutes reporter Mike Wallace or late night host Conan O'Brien. I like living here because of its close distance to Boston and natural habitats and beautiful gardens. It provides instant access to New England and its surrounding beauty. I captured this glorious Tulip right of the sidewalk. The contrasting bright orange of these spring flowers in front of the purple floral blossoms in the background really stood out and immediately drew me in. The tulip floral that I actually made the main subject showed some real character and was lit by some indirect sunlight. I set up my tripod and camera and started composing around the orange flower with my Canon EF 70-200 mm f/2.8L IS USM lens and Canon EOS D7 camera. The wind was a bit problematic but my persistence kept me shooting until I captured my vision. The camera aperture was set to f/5.0 that resulted in an exposure time of 1/400 second at ISO100 and provided the limited Depth of Field to blur out the other flowers and shrubs in the background nicely. During post processing I minimally adjusted lighting, contrast and color saturation before sharpening this final floral photography image of "Orange and Purple".
Good light and happy photo making!
My best,
Juergen
