Painters Pallet Photo

Photographer’s Note

This photo was taken on the National Rhododendron Gardens on the region of Dandenongs.
The best time to visit this fantastic gardens are in the begining os spring and the begining of autumn.
The National Rhododendron Gardens are host to an unparalleled variety of brilliantly coloured blooms, mainly rhododendrons, azaleas, camellias, and daffodils.

I hope you like the photo was taken on the end of afternoon and I croped, increase contrast and a litle bit of saturation.

Dear Pedro,
the composition works for me well, but...
The colors are too oversaturated for my taste. And what is it with that grain (maybe cause of oversharpening) - it looks like an image converted to a dithered GIF.
In my opinion, it could have been much better photo without that overdone PP!

Hi Pedro
You have a great shot here. I agree with Adrique that the post-processing may be a touch too much, but the basic idea with your composition is sound and well-executed. Thanks for posting!

Hi Pedro,
I think the vibrant, saturated colors are great in this, but I have to agree that the grain (possibly due to oversharpening?) somewhat ruins an otherwise excellent photo. Composition is very nice too.
Rob.

Olá Pedro,
um caminho bem interessante de se percorrer esse, envolto de uma natureza exuberante e cores diversificadas. Gostei do tratamento aplicado aqui com forte saturação, um belo trabalho.
Parabéns e Abraço!
