Pomegranate Flower in Okinawa, Japan

Uploaded: April 27, 2011

Description

This photo was taken in Okinawa, Japan 27 APR 2011 at 1:15PM in the rain using a Pentax K10D Handheld f/11 1/180 ISO 100 Camera flash 18-250 Pentax lens at a focal length of 170mm. Having been told this is an unusual color flower for the pomegranate, I decided I'd take my chances in the wind and rain, rather than miss the shot.

Michelle,
Thank you. Not sure, intrepid would describe me, though. You'd have to see the blog I did about why I was shooting these in the wind and rain. Smiles... #9374716
