Lilies on Fire

The neighbor lady has a beautiful lily of some sort and she was kind enough to let me photograph it this afternoon.
Taken with a Pentax K-50 using a SMC Pentax-FA 100mm f:2.8 macro lens. ISO 800, 1/750th @ f:6.7

I added a little contrast so as to darken the background, then bumped the saturation a mite and added a little unsharpmask. I try to not get carried away with the USM as it can quickly ruin an otherwise good image.

I have sort of an unwritten personal limitation as to how far I'm willing to go during post processing in order to arrive at a finished product that I personally like. I tend to stay pretty close to what nature provided me in the first place and work with that without adding "make believe" details. This isn't meant to disparage those who like that aspect of post processing at all. I too like to dabble with it once in a while, but I always seem to end back to Mother Nature's raw image. I've found that by manipulating the sunlight and shadows (without using flash), and varying my angle, depth of field, background, time of day, exposure and shooting several different compositions, I can produce a good number of viable "blank canvas" images to work with.
