This is a re-shoot of the same plant, but 3 years later. Last summer the plant did not bloom. The plant is a solitary steam that I have grown for about 5 years. This year was the first time that there was more than one bloom. I was trying to get a photo all 3 blooms, however, the severe rain storm we had 2 nights ago ruined the plant.
These 2 sots were done with my 35mm f1.8 prime lens on the D200. Added some sharpening and an OnOne frame on the single bloom. Both of these were shot against a black background as I did not want to edit out a brick wall. (July 2013)
BTW...... The single bloom was posted on the Floral Friday theme on Google+ and I received the most +"s I have ever gotten for a single shot .
