Description What better way to start the trip than with a beautiful first day of shooting at the Washington Park Arboretum in Seattle. :]

Oh, did I mention there are ferns there?!

mmm..just love that light! thats one of my favorite areas of the park..light is always dramatic but i can never seem to capture it right let alone perfectly like you have here! beautiful processing..excellent softness with the perfect amount of crispy! amazing capture, sweetie!

Was some pretty great light in that little area of the park! Wish we could have walked the entire park, but felt like we had walked in circles as it was!
I'm sure you captured some greatness here too...eager to see your purple flower shots from this area. I'm pretty sure I didn't get any keepers there! Thanks for your beautiful comment...was pretty excited about this shot myself.

Aww...
Eager to see some shots throughout the week to remind me of the awesome places we saw. My trip processing will be on hiatus this week, unfortunately! Eager to get through those portraits and back to nature!

Thanks so much, Tris! You're the first to notice those blue highlights, which is really what made this shot, in my opinion!

Pinedrop In reply to LAlight [2012-04-20 17:12:50 +0000 UTC]

I'm curious... were they some kind of reflection or an actual part of the fern's color scheme? If you know.

LAlight In reply to Pinedrop [2012-04-20 17:17:38 +0000 UTC]

I think it's just the lighting. It was a heavily shaded area, and the sky was blue, but I'm not sure if it was a reflection of that or not. Honestly, I probably could have warmed up the color a bit, but I liked the way it turned out, so I left it "shady" looking.

For what it's worth, I think you were right not to mess with that blue.

Come on over to the west coast and you shall! How've you been, Jim? Been awfully quiet around here!

Ratabago In reply to LAlight [2012-04-22 00:19:00 +0000 UTC]

Hmm, I've been sick, and weary, and busy. But generally in pretty good spirits otherwise, given I havent had as much time for photography as I'd like.

I'd like to get to the West Coast, particularly as I've got friends and family just a short hop (about a thousand miles) up North (way North)in British Columbia. Sadly, I can't see it happening any time soon.
