Flower Against The Sky

I liked the blue sky in the background in this shot. Was just lucky it wasnt very windy and i could shoot it with the desired focus and blur in action. :-)

great colors, Rahul! I like the blue background, too.

@Sarah: Thanks Sarah. :) I had to change the camera setting to vivid and saturate the colors a bit to get that effect. The sky was also kinda good blue that day.

@Lisha: Thanks Lisha, the blue was result of little camera settings and also the sky was wonderfully blue that day. :) It helped.
