Our local Botanical Garden is rich in its variety of species and very attractve during the whole year. I go there very often because its near and a welcome source of inspiration and recreation.

Since we are 4 weeks early this year every day is bringing new surprises.

There is one corner where a few Japanese Maple trees are unfolding their beauty.

Iduna, these are very beautiful shots; each one in its own way because of the color background! The IQ and the bokeh are excellent in both!

I, also, love shooting in botanic gardens; but what really bothers me is all the different tags that ruins the photos!...

I agree with Louis, about your images and about the tags. I just spent a couple of hours at our botanical gardens and had the tag problem everywhere.

Yes, the different lighting and backgrounds make these similar subjects so different, it's a clever trick! Very nice, well done!

Iduna,

 

A beautiful pair of the same subject presented in different ways and both very effectively just by the placement of light. A good lesson we should all learn.

Louis, Brent

 

thanks a lot for your support. I admit that I dare removing those nasty tags with all the famous tools in LR and PSE. Mostly I try to avoid them also but where not possible I try to blur them within the bokeh of use the clone stamp as the ultimate reason.

 

Paul,

your comment is always delightful and interesting. We all are learning every day and I am learning from you guys so much on this forum...this is why we meet here and it is a pleasure.

 

Stuart,

always thanks for you being a faithful visitor and your nice short comments.

very nice , anyway there were no red maple in the botanical garden?

[Iduna]

leicatraveller,

 

thanks for your feedback. In the backrop you can see a red color disapperaing in the bokeh. This is in fact a huge maple tree with red leaves. But you have to wait for a good lighting to bring this into a good frame.

Ingrid,

thanks a lot for your choice. It is also mine beause it is more subtle.In fact the luminance of green was so intense that it had to be reduced in favour of having a clear balanced separation of colors and details. You noticed this, thanks.
