Still amazed once in a while
9

Long time, no see.

Last weekend I visited the Singer Museum in Laren, The Netherlands. There was an exposition about flowers in paintings. This was one of my favorites paintings, so I pulled my camera and shot this one, hand held, indoors.

Color, composition and content wise all credits go to the painter. But the way the colors pop and and the strokes are rendered, leaves me amazed. Workflow SPP -> JPG --> Gimp. If I l look at this for 10 seconds, fullscreen, I forget that I look at a monitor (IPS, matte).

I will include an image in Full HD format. Hopefully you will enjoy it.

Have fun shooting,

Well done - hand-held without flash!

Nice reds on my monitor.

Also goes to show, don't be afraid of ISO

It looks like the image was ISO400, yet still has great colors.  Don't be afraid to bump up the iSO when you need it is a lesson here!

Really nice painting.

Thank you.  I also love that portrait (and the girl, my daughter).
