Hibiscus In The Wind

Today’s post is a photo I did awhile back in our front yard, this hibiscus was just asking to be photographed and I obliged.  The day I shot this photo it was pretty windy and took quite a few tries to the photo I wanted.  Using a shallow depth of field I was able to get the stamen in focus and the pedals to fall off into soft focus.  I wanted to pull out the color of this flower so there are some color edits, as well as some sharpening to give that razor edge focus.  I really like how the stamen leads your eye into the middle of the flower.

Thanks so much for reading today,
