Day #113 @ Photography Project 365

These photos are the result of a new technique that I learned from a photography magazine recently.

First, I placed the plant by the window. Then, I placed two sheets of blank, white paper behind the flowers to serve as its background. I switched my camera to Aperture Priority, dialed in two stops of positive exposure compensation (+2EV), focused and snapped away.

The results are actually quite captivating. The bright, colorful flowers are set against a clean, bright background that serves to accentuate its glow.
