Day 20 – Chicory

Chicory

I went gunning for wildflowers on my morning walk this morning with the Trio28. Mostly I found chicory and queen Anne’s Lace. I’m still getting the hang of this wide angle macro thing but I’m finding that if there are other flowers in the background that adds a little interest. I also watched some training videos from Lensbaby yesterday and they even say that you should take three or four pictures in hopes that at least one will be in focus. But they also gave me the tip to use the zoom feature on my view screen to check the focus. I tried that on this one and it worked, though it is a bit of a challenge when hand holding.

In post processing I did crop in to see the main flower better. I added a high pass filter to make that sharp focus even sharper, and a vignette to bring the main flower forward.
