Week 11 good to WOW SOOC Flowers

I don't have any flowers in my yard, but my sister-in-law did and the hotel we spent the weekend did, so after 700 pictures I have narrowed it down. It helps that I took all of them on manual mode and forgot to check my ISO for 42 pictures, so I have 42 completely white pictures of Daffodils on ISO 1600--they looked great in the view finder. After that I did get better at checking my histogram each shot.

I actually narrowed it down to 8 different pictures and had my friends at my Real Life Blog help so I could follow the rules this week.

SOOC
f/5.6  1/250  175mm ISO 100
 Thank you for the challenge and the motivation to get out and shoot!

I love this little clump of crocus flowers - so good just as an sooc.

I had to laugh when I saw your camera phone prompt for yesterday's scavenger hunt. How cute is that!

So pretty! Lovely SOOC shot! Seeing all the crocus sprouting makes me want to plant some bulbs for next spring. I'll just add them to my ever-growing list. :)

You are funny! I think you made a great choice, although I didn't see the other choices. This one is definitely very pretty just plain ol' SOOC!

I have this same color crocus in my yard. :) It was hard not to choose crocus photos because I've taken so many lately but I wanted to pick photos I hadn't played with yet. Can't wait to see what the result is for your crocuses.
