Cobwebs & Fluff

Continuing with my experiments with aperture priority settings, I didn't venture further than the garden today. There was something about these seeds caught in a spider's web that I found compellingly attractive.

Maybe I'll blip something more conventional tomorrow.....

I was also photographing poppies. Can anyone tell me why I'm not getting the same vibrancy of colour that I would get on auto? There must be something I need to adjust! I've temporarily shown examples in my extras - nothing done to them whatsoever (except resizing) and taken purely to show the difference in colour, so not composed well at all! Both are JPEGs -  auto f/5.3 ISO 1100 aperture priority version f/5.3 ISO 1000

Very many thanks for so many encouraging comments, advice and hearts on my efforts to break away from fully auto mode yesterday with my barbed wire blip - very much appreciated! :))


Day 59 of Blipout2015, suggested by PaulFS,  making the most of the daylight by only blipping outdoor photos until the clocks change in October.
