What did his guide dog say?
The lighting is excellent.
All the best!

I'm sorry if I have posted this image before....

I entered a local competition with this. The judge didn't like it - at
all. He said the lighting was bad. That's what bothers me: Is it really
wrong
to try to just photograph something the way you see it? As I opened my
front
door one morning in late August (the day after I received my new *ist D),
I noticed this flower, which I believe it is a weed, not a "culture"
flower.
I shot it right there - from my doorway - as I saw it - that fine morning.
My front door is facing east, so naturally, it's back lit! The
almost-black
background is just the shadow-side of my hedge - noting
artificial/arranged.
All the best
