Photo 365: Day 64 – Iris
I was pleasantly surprised to see Iris bouquet at Costco today 😉 I love taking floral pictures and bought a bouquet this evening.

As I was having my dinner this evening, I saw the westward sunlight creeping through the window blinds. Shot the light/blinds using 50mm prime and later modified the color/tone using PS actions.
I had to pick my daughter from her class this evening and as I was waiting for her, I took the picture of my key bunch with Fuji P&S F30. Later this evening I was able to give it a soft/faded feel using the CS4 action set that I had downloaded from Pioneer Woman Blog.
So kudos to Pioneer Woman for making the action set freely available for download.
Contrary to yesterday’s post, today’s photo post is not a cheerful/colorful one.
Did some experimentation with lighting this evening to capture this silhouette of netting on the screen door. Focused the camera at the netting towards the bright clouds/sky. Used manual mode and slightly overexposed to wash out netting that were out of focus. As I used 60mm macro with shallow depth of field, all the netting towards the far right and left appears almost washed out.
Later used Adobe RAW to add contrast. I kind of like it 😉
It was rather a cloudy, gloomy day this evening and I was looking for a colorful subject for today’s post. Rummaging our pantry, I found this box of dyed cheerios (a.k.a Fruit Loops) – we are not big fan of cereal fortified with HFCS at our house 😉
Anyway, stacked these up and took the picture with 1sec exposure. And for the backdrop used the cereal box – nice bokeh here 😉
