Hampton Court Flower Show
« on: July 02, 2015, 14:18:19 »
Went to Hampton Court Flower Show and shot a short gallery for BBC World Service. It was scorching hot there, my car showed 39,5 C.

I like the colour power of the first shot. can you check for orange cast?
You are out there. You and your camera. You can shoot or not shoot as you please. Discover the world, Your world. Show it to us. Or we might never see it.

Thanks Frank. I did not want the neutral WB here, I like it as it is. I am very unsofisticated  ;)

Alexander: I did not remix down to neutral. This is quite a non linear edit with emphsis on red green and blue

Yes, it is a nice edit.  I never use the color checker and only do a very simple editing. 

Here are some less interesting shots that I did not include in the gallery.

I prefer these last two. Great people scenes.

I must admit I LOVE hats. As soon as I see one I pull the trigger. One overwhelming reason to move to the USA.

I just thought if gardeners were an army that woman in the middle would be their Bonaparte.

I enjoyed my tour. The people all look as if they're melting. Do you garden?

Sash - the last photo is great - and your picking up Bonaparte is classic.
