Nikon D70s - 50mm Prime @, 1/4000s, f/1.8, Aperture Priority, Matrix Metering Taken on: 2006-06-08_07-58-29
Color and Selective Focus Some post-processing: Levels (Midtone slider:1.025), Warming filter, Deep Red Filter, Sharpening (unsharp mask: 150% 1 0)
As you can see the overcast is very apparent in this picture. I tried my best to lighten the photo, and keep the color saturation in the flower petals at the same time. This is why I added in a deep red filter into the mix. But this is no substitution to a warm early morning sun.
Lesson Learned: Lighting is key.

You chose a good background color for these photos. I like the DOF best.
What is photography besides capturing light?

I agree with Henry. Your f/1.8 shots have been very interesting. The bokeh of the f/1.8 is pretty nice, sort like strokes on an oil canvas.
