The color of these smaller azaleas really blew me away! This photo was just taken a few minutes ago. I could hardly wait to get it on to the computer to upload this one.
The image is straight from my camera, converted directly to JPEG from RAW. It was captured on May first with a Canon EOS 10D body with a Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 USM 1:1 Macro prime lens. The shutter speed was 1/15 sec at f/9.5. The camera’s ISO was set to 100. Natural evening light only, no flash.

Hello, My name is Gene. I live in the Susquehanna river valley (West Branch), in the mountains of north central Pennsylvania. I strive to produce photographic images that are simply “true” to the subject, usually with minimal post processing. If something is beautiful or interesting enough to deserve a viewer’s attention, it justifies being captured just as it is …or as close to reality as possible.
