From the Albert Park, Melbourne on 26 05 2023, I spotted a floating maple leaf on the surface of the lake. It was the colour of the leaf that attracted me. I also liked the milky colour of the water with the pastel colour of water plant underneath. My perception was obviously on the setting of the environment.
From the Flower Dome of the Gardens by the Bays on the 07 06 2023, I was attracted by a group of vibrant roses. For such a close up image of flora, I had to make sure from my vantage angle the group of flora is complimentary to each other. The brilliant lighting is also a key factor for the visual impact of the image.
The vibrant colours of roses usually are a favourite subject for photography. On 02 06 2023 at Gardens by the Bay, I had an opportunity of capturing more images of the flower. Though my visit was during the evening, the soft lighting was still sufficient to allow me to capture a number of eye-catching image.
As my usual practice in photography, simplicity and colour is always applied for my macro-photography in order to achieve maximum visual impact.
