Welcome To The Daily View

Today is the last day of February and we are one day closer to Spring. So keeping with the flowers and blooms theme I am sharing another one of our house plants with you. This is my first and only African Violet. Another flower that I have been told time and again is hard to care for.

We have had this violet for about a year now and though the flowers do eventually wilt we seem to see new ones every few months. And all I do is water it twice a week and vary the amount of sun it gets.

Technical Info

- Canon 80D
- Sigma DC 18-250mm Lens at 250mm
- Aperture Priority
- Aperture F22
- Shutter Speed 1 Second
- ISO (Film Speed) 800
- Spot Metering

I shot this at close range with my lens fully extended and naturally my camera was tripod mounted. I used the camera's self timer to avoid camera shake.

Post processing was done in Photoshop with the help of Google's NIK Collection of filters.

Here is the "Before" image.
