Or, trying to get my camera's white balance to work...

Yet another quickie post of flowers. I have something similar in my garden, but the contrast isn't nearly as dramatic.

these are huge flowers, probably 4–5"

shot 27may2010 right around 7:30

I took these before I realized that the white I was seeing on the camera's screen was not necessarily the white I was gonna get on a full-size monitor, so it was kind of a frustrating experience. And in fact the white has a rather yellow cast—because, um, it was late in the day, and the light had a rather yellow cast!

Anyway, not much else to say, ’cepting they're purty.
