Photo Sharing - Nikon Part 2

[pointandshoot]

I really like this! Can you tell me what your settings were?

Thanks. Truth be told, this is my DD image she shot at age 10 in Big Sur. She calls it "Sisters". She is a young oil painter and photographer who has had some fortune in photo contests within her age group as well as adult competitions. She is a joy to shoot with.

The technical details. Nikon D40 with 55-200mm kit lens. Shot at 165mm at ISO 200 with f8 1/1250. She will tell you she took a fair bit of time to compose.

Raw adjustment is camera raw with sharpening and contrast added in Photoshop. A separate layer for the flowers and background were created to flatten the background colors and make the flowers pop in color and detail,

I will tell her you liked it. She gets a thrill with that type of feedback.

Nice job on the processing. That is not an easy shot to bring out the details like you did.

You win a nice big "CORRECT!" But seeing you are from Northern California, maybe you should be disqualified for insider knowledge.
