Theme Thursday: Focus

January 30th, 2008 by sallad

I wasn’t sure what to shoot for this Theme Thursday, but Thomas bought me some beautiful tulips, so I focused (no pun intended) on them. Once again, I used my lightbox — I promise I will cut down on lightbox photos, I know it’s getting boring — but this time I hung up black fabric as a background and used our 105mm macro lens. Below are my favorites, but I put several shots on Flickr:

    Wow… tough choice :-) If I had to pick one, though, it would be the first or fourth of your favorites.

    Gorgeous. The first one is my favorite for sure!

    Beautiful! I think I like the first one best, with all the rich tones in the background, too. Love them. :)

    Oh, I ADORE tulips. One of my MOST favorite flowers! And yes, I like the first one best…mostly because the one tulip is in focus, and the others in the background are muted and hazy. Lovely.

    I’m feeling the love for that light box! And those pictures are amazing, I can’t pick just one.

    Since tulips are my favorite flower on earth, I cannot possibly choose only one as my favorite. They’re all my favorite!

    Hi there!

    I love them all but I will pick the black and white as my favorite, love it!!
    I love your light box, thanks so much for the tip, I made too! I just used it one day so I still need to practice more, but it makes me curious, how did you hang the fabric? I was having trouble hanging stuff with tape cause I didn’t want to ruin the white boards…

    Thanks!
