Red like in rubies, good for cures [HDR] Gaze into my facets<br />
Gleaming in the light<br />
Reflecting to the world<br />
My Goodness at its height<br />

This 20-50cm plant originates from high altitude mountains like the Alps and the Balkan mountain ranges and normally flower on rocky grounds rich in chalk. The flowers are used by pharmaceuticals to produce medicinal aromatic essential oil called Zdravec oil (of Bulgarian invention).  <br />
 These reside in our garden, which has lucious black earth full of natural nutrients and lots of water. Quite different, but these beautiful flowers like it in our garden. As do we. <br />

  1. My second try at High Dynamic Range, maybe a bit stretched artistically:) What do you think?

    Three RAW shots, +-EV2.0, 100ISO. The mysterious effect is the merging of three photos all slightly different due to the winds gently breeze.

    1. Nice experiment Ludo! Some honest feedback: I love the parts in focus, their dynamic range really shines. The parts out of focus are interesting as they reveal the movement, but they also make me slightly seasick :) Posted 13 years ago
      1. Honest feedback appreciated. HDR is really interesting, as effects are not present in any of the pictures, yet created on combining them.
        Glad you like it:)
