SOOC - Daisy in the Arboretum Tree

Davis has a beautiful arboretum. At pretty much every season, the arboretum offers a plethora of photo opportunities. Flowers and trees abound, benches are strategically placed offering great places to relax and enjoy the day.

The top photo is very cool in color.The sign on the tree is also unsightly to the final photo as well.

I warmed the photo with just a slight tone adjustment and cropped the photo to just above the sign. Nothing else really needed to be done to it. (Thankfully)

My Goldfish

Not an actual goldfish, but my daughter moved from her infant/toddler swim class to the Goldfish class. She starts on Monday. I'm thrilled. Naturally I have no photos of her swimming today because I was swimming with her. Either way, we went to the Davis Arboretum and took pictures for a couple of hours afterwards.

I would love to take a family there for pictures. It's a beautiful place especially in the spring. It should be in bloom for the next few weeks.

SOOC Sunday: Flowers

It's SOOC (straight out of the camera) Sunday! Today's subject: Flowers.

I took some photos before church today. Poppies are popping (pun fully intended) up all over the place around here right now.

Here's what it looks like now with a bit of editing. Some cropping and color adjustment:

Much better. 195mm, 125ISO, f2.8.
