TSC: white on white

TSC: white on white
This is as close as I will get to a high-key image. In the end I played with the levels and the contrast just a bit and added some softening on the edges.
I held a white folder behind the white lily and hoped for the best natural light I could get. I used the flash and I think that is what caused the glittery bit in the centre.

Beautiful shot - I also wanted to use my Spathiphyllum, but first I already had this at TSC and secondly, the only flower is a bit greenish because it fades slowly! ;-D

Thanks Gudrun, I thought the flash made the centre to 'glittery'

sonst mag ich Blitzlichtaufnahmen nicht besonders, aber Deine Aufnahme, und vor allem die Bearbeitung und das Resultat beeindruckt mich, Wendi!

read what Pappy said about adjusting your exposure; the exposure meter is tricked and tries to adjust white into grey, which leads to an error of about two stops.
