Scorpioangel, what "moment" was that? I would really like to try to get a shot like that. Can you provide other advice on how to get it? That is a wonderful pic.

irmaly ... the 'moment' was caught in dappled shade with the sunlight hitting the flowers but not the background. With the background in the shade and the camera (Konica Minolta Dimage A200) set for the brightness of the flowers the picture was born. (Always pay attention to what is in the background of the picture you want ... it can make or break the shot)

Thank you for your comments

Happy_1 .... :) reading the instructions does help some but I feel the main way to get better pictures is to have the camera at hand always and practice, practice, practice. A digital is a great way to practice. Most of all .... 'Have Fun' :)
