I managed to shoot this in our garden just minutes before a huge thunder and hail storm hit Branston.
I used the Camera+ app – it has a useful function to split the exposure and focus points – so I could focus on the central flower but expose for the lighter right hand flower.
Then to lift the image I used the Clarify filter in the Camera+ Lightbox. Below is the original image.
…and here is the rain through the patio window.
I have posted this photo again as the “post to Facebook” plugin had stopped working – so I had to update posts since The weekend to get them to show on Facebook but this one did not include the photo for some reason!
Here is the link to the original port on my blog https://www.clivecatton.co.uk/2012/08/02/flower/.
I got this shot minutes before a heavy rain shower – so it was very overcast. I processed the shot using Photogene2 and the high contrast mono filter I created in the app.

No dramatic sunsets, brooding black and whites, or colourful flowers today – just a screen shot of a fix for an iPhone.
