Yes it’s with the iPhone but I am still working on the Fuji GFX photograph!
So this celebrates both Mothers’ Day and the meticulous work on a hillside garden of native Californian species.

The last possible picture, I think, of the 4 day cut hillside-cultivated native Californian flowers, with the Fuji GFX and the Fuji 100-200.
This has given me a lot of pleasure. No need for a chaperone, they were not late!

This one might be my favorite, peut-être qu'avec un fond uniforme, d'une couleur plus neutre, les fleurs seraient encore plus présentes et "vivantes"… L'arrière plan et le support sont trop présents pour moi… Ils distraient l'œil alors que les fleurs sont magnifiques !

Thanks so much for visiting and your comments, Nicolas!
Interesting that you pick the one taken with the iPhone Xs Max and not #3 with the GFX. The flowers were just 2 days from being cut.
I actually enjoy so much the earthen background. So much so that I Long to reproduce it!
I would commend you you #3 as it’s high key, very detailed and the color is still rich.
But it was using kitchen lights and the flowers were too close to the white card b.g.
I am asking for fresh hillside flowers to enjoy this process further!

I like this hi key version! The foreground brightness,and color, is what brings this around.
