Straight out of Camera Sunday #1

I'm hypercritical of my photos and I feel like every one needs at least a tiny bit of tweaking, but when I saw this one I thought it was close enough to perfect that I resisted the urge to manipulate it in any way.

  2. The second one looks like a hibiscus, there's plenty of them here in my neighbourhood. They are the national flower of Malaysia, our neighbour.

  3. I agree with you...they are perfect (my opion). I tend to be critical of my photos also and I am an amateur.

  4. No editing needed here! Most of my pics are SOOC, but that's because I find the editing process boring. Or I'm lazy... whichever....

  14. Nice. They both turned out great. I like the slightly wilted look of the petals. Reminds of what the hot weather does when you're not careful.
