Zinnia Angel

I wanted to make a photograph for Orange You Glad It's Friday so I picked some zinnias in the late afternoon. It's a good time to take pictures because the light has a warm tint and long shadows can look dramatic.

I made a number of shots using the garden angel as a prop. Which do you prefer?

  8. I think the middle one is really awesome!! The backlighting really accentuates the petals on the flowers.
