Yummy pictures everyone!  First bloom for Porcelain Doll (who was peach colored when she opened this morning), Maui Masterpiece (getting bigger & brighter), and a second day Pocahontas (who's trying out some new tricks). Deb  |

Pretty photos, everyone. Lynette, I was glad to see the first photo of Wild Allure posted to the forum. It looks to be a very floriferous plant with lots of branches.
Louis, you get really good color in your photos. What kind of camera do you use? Any special tips or tricks you would be willing to pass on?

hello charlie, the secret to good and accurate color is white balance. before i take any photos of the blooms, i set the camera to custom white balance. i take a photo of a piece of white cardboard that is a reference card. when i process the photos in photoshop, i select the white of the card and all colors in the photo know what white is and then adjust themselves accordingly. the camera that i am using is a canon G-10. nice little camera. the detail on this camera is wonderful. thanks for asking, louis |

Porcelain Doll - Second day bloom even better than the first (beautiful patina and form)...
I can see why she's your favorite motherof4 (I love her, too!)
Heart of My Heart - Showing her true colors (blood red with dark shading).

Hi Louis,
5.5" - It's a very textured (fluffy) bloom with a velvety feel.
