Night Pansy (macro @ night)

[suprspi]

I took this the other night in my mothers garden. I had no tripod so it took me lots of tries to keep still enough for the 2.5 sec. exposure. I'd really like to find out if anyone out there thinks it's as interesting as I do.

It was lighted by a little solar garden stake, and I had my macro mode on for shallower DOF on my Sony DSC-H50.

If anyone has any simple suggestions for making it better in Paint Shop Pro 8 I'd appreciate it, and try to do some post-processing.

If anyone wants to try post-processing on it themselves, please just ask me first.

First, the original:


Exposure: 10
Aperture: f/2.7
