Project 365 - Day 110 - Tulips ... again...

I can't tell you how many times Sonia has heard from me "Don't throw that out, I want to shoot it first!"  That's what happened today when we were putting new tulips in for the older dead ones.  They had a pretty cool look to them, with the sun coming in the window from behind.

I took this shot quick with my 24-70mm lens, as I had limited time to actually shoot it.  Shallow depth of field blurs out the backyard in the background and also allows the colours from the better looking tulips to mottle.

Here's the shot:


This is pretty much out of camera.  I cropped for content, and boosted the colours a bit. 

24-70mm lens at 45mm.  ISO400, f/2.8 at 1/640s shutter.  Handheld, and no flash.
