Victoria amazonica[edit]

I'm pretty happy with it technically, as composition, exposure and focus all seemed ok, and it shows the flower during it's "white" phase. Plus I thought the reflection was pretty.

It is quite a lot underexposed, almost a stop. Probably need to bump it up a fair bit. Noodle snacks (talk) 07:22, 21 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I forgot about that lens, now that you point it out. The 200mm always underexposes half a stop or so, which I forgot to adjust for today. I've replaced it with the longer exposure version (I always auto-bracket). - Bilby (talk) 08:04, 21 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I dislike the lilypad in the corner, but otherwise it would make a fine FP. I won't ask for a retake, but the lilypad is really distracting. Nezzadar ☎ 05:16, 22 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I disagree, the lily pad adds more to the EV and isn't distracting at all. — raeky ^{(talk | edits)} 18:20, 26 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
