Here is one more shot from the Berkeley Botanical gardens, a Matilija poppy. For this one, I needed three hands. One to hold the flower given the slight breeze. Another hand to hold the reflector to reduce the harsh light, and a third hand to trip the shutter.
Even though I was leaving, I stopped for the tiger lily…
I was intrigued by a small clump of tiger lilies. Again, I needed a third hand so settled for a blown out sky for the background while laying on the ground and shooting upward.
