I went on a 60 hour whirlwind tour of the north country earlier this week, shooting mainly lupines in early and late light. I came away with a dozen or so keepers, and this is potentially my favorite.
The problems that I humbly request comment on...first off, due to gusty breezes (~10 mph), I had to shoot this at a fairly large aperature for landscape work, and as such, it goes out of focus real fast after the blooms. Does this work.
Additionally, the brook is fairly bright right now, I could burn down the highlights, but curious as to thoughts.
Any other insights appreciated.
Thanks in advance...
Taken this morning as dawn broke over Mount Madison.

5 Stops of ND filtration
Polarizer (for flower saturation, oops on the brook!)
Lull in strong breeze
