Pink Flower with Raindrops


I went to a BBQ yesterday, and predictably it rained quite a lot. Between showers the sun came out and I took this picture of a nice pink flower with some raindrops on it. I like the way the bold colours on the flower contrast with the darker colours of the background. I also like the gentle blurring of the background.

I’ve started cropping my images down to 6in x 4in proportions and then resizing the longest side to be 640 pixels (the original is still at full size). This should produce more normal looking photos. I might try and modify the Livejournal Crossposter and the RSS feed code so that the image is shown in the post too. Currently the template has an ‘image’ field for the picture which I use, but which isn’t present in the RSS or LJ crosspost pages.

About James

I'm just a person who likes writing software in their spare time. I'm not an "indie games developer" and am not trying to escape my day job and live in the happy world of games dev. I'm more like one of those people that used to write games in their spare time in the 80s. My stuff would be PD or Shareware if this were the 80s or 90s. It's good to comment on the posts in here :)
