| Mavica Digital Camera Tips: Cleaning up the colours TIP #4: Watch your light source |

![]() Photo #1: Sun behind my back Here I used my body to shade the flowers for an overall evening of the colours. |
![]() Photo #2: Intermediate light Same flowers from a different direction. This time the light was a little more direct, but still diffused from passing pedestrians. The close up shot removed unnecessary surrounding scenery and light. |
![]() Photo #3: Direct light In this case the sun was shining directly on the flowers greatly enhancing the contrast and range of colours. Also, standing back a little brought in more of the surrounding ambient light not directly related to the flowers. |
