Floral Fox

Description

Spring is finally progressing into its most beautiful stage up here in the western Canadian prairies. This means that the beauty of the flowers and plants in the gardens, flowerbeds, fields, and forests is exploding with color and begging to be photographed.

Well this year I have my new Nikon D3100 DSLR camera that is also begging to be used. As such, I took my camera into my backyard garden to capture to try to capture some of this floral beauty.

This FLORAL FOX photo is the best of several I took of these most beautiful patch of very small pink flowers. I took several photos in an attempt to capture the best angle, lighting, and depth of field of these flowers in front of the statue of a small fox that has always been position behind them. I wanted the sharp focus to be on the flowers and to have the fox blurred out in the background. I also took the photo from an angle that would make it look like the fix is hiding "in wait" behind the flowers. Notice how the one eye is surrounded by the flowers :)

The only post processing done to this photo was that it was CROPPED (using the guideline of rule of 1/3rds) and the exposure & levels were slightly adjusted to further intensify the beauty of the pinks and greens.

Hope this photo brings you some peace and serenity as you look at it. :)
