I took a small walk today because of the nice weather and saw this flower growing just off the side of a building here on campus. I liked the colors, so I tried to capture it.

Purple (as in this case) and red flowers just look so unreal sometimes against the deep green background. It is almost like they are screaming to have someone take their picture. Or that is just my weird imagination running on after a long day?!? Photography = a constant learning process

It looks fine here, but most likely that's because my monitor has the brightness turned down. I did notice that a lot of other images appear underexposed. I've tried the adobe gamma wizard about 100 times, but this monitor is hopeless, oh well.
