Nikon DSLR "Picture Of The Day"

Is this a result of the fires in Australia? Its an amazing shot.

excellent rich. shows the morid desolation and death of the event. imo it conveys the theme perfectly.

I know I'm becoming an apologist for Lightroom but really it was about four clicks.

It reminds me of one of those WW1 images of Passendale or the Somme.

BTW: It was taken as a jpeg as well. :-)

wow kiwi, great photo. its a good thing you are a good photographer cause your camera is rubbish!

Finally a good sunny spring day.

A little dark, but I like the detail I got on the wasp and the daisy.

Manual focus
1/4000
f/5.6
55mm
250 iso
+1/3 EV (that would explain the darkness)

Would you guys recommend brighting it up in a digital art program like Gimp, or keep it as is?

Reggie I was wearing a Triumph T shirt yesterday when I was out riding so that's a great photo. :D

P.S. Some strobist info would help people like me who can't figure these things out properly.
