Using the sky as a white backdrop...

[theman]

Was on my way to the Ocoee river, stoped at a gas station and saw all these beautiful flowers to the side of the building. It was not a great time to shot flowers because it was around noon, so I decided to get creative and use the sky as a white backdrop by blowing it out. Shot with Canon 10D, 100mm Macro Lens, Bogen Tripod. F16 1/20th ISO 100.
