In November I returned to the colourful bulbs - they had opened further and the leaves had begun to decay. I was curious to see how this affected the final images.
The camera was on a tripod for stability and I once I had composed my image I experimented with the aperture and depth of field. Wider aperture gives narrower depth of field.
The last image is the one I prefer. the colours and contrasting textures are a delight, and the wider background of the other photos was a distraction .
I prefer the photo taken earlier - mainly because of its simplicity. However what would be a fascinating project for 2012 would be to take the same photo throughout the year and display4 images together to contrast the seasons. A good plan I think!
