Colour photography
« on: May 24, 2010, 08:25:14 PM »
We have just waddled back from Germany.   Strange I cannot get red flowers to come out red with my Nikon Coolpix 8700 but here in the most abysmal light of the big pastry counter in Berlin they come out perfectly.

We left our weather there and returned to nasty heat, 26c here today.

Mark - You must learn to approach foods with the same passion as Galanthus!  And hang out with the best scouting gurus. And don't go in the snowdrop season.  By the way we did get to the Spargel Gala which was being held in Bremen, some exquisite Poculiform ones.
  
Highly recommended - Wiltmann Salami;  as we cannot import meats we had to eat everything before touching down in this land of deprivation.  We managed.

Aaahhh! A reminder, if one were needed, of why Berlin is so wonderful!

I can see why you waddled home. Showing pictures like that is cruel and unusual punishment!

No back to my original point for the photographers amongst us. Why do the reds turn out in these conditions?
