Guess Which is Which...
It's been pretty dreary the last few days so I wanted to post something colorful. One of these images was shot with film and the other digitally, can you tell which is which? I'll let you know tomorrow.
What great shots, it's really hard to tell, but I am also going to say that the red one is film/ Thanks goodness you did ask what kind of flowers they are.. I would have had to fold..LOL
Hi John, I just came across your site from Sandpiper's site. It seems most of my blogger acquaintences are in the North. Quite a few live in Canada, so I am enjoying seeing Spring in real time from different parts of the continent. Your photos are great- I also like the fact that you are a kayaker. I bought a Sea Kayak way back in 1993- and it is still going strong! :) I live in Alabama, so it is a tad more colorful down here right now- but still not warm enough for my tastes! :)
Hi John, Both pictures are beautiful. They are obviously taken at different aperture settings, but to tell which one is digital is difficult for me. I am going to go with the cardinal flower (I think that is what it is) as the film shot. This is just a guess for me though! I really don’t know how to tell the difference! Can’t wait to find out! I don’t know the other flower, can’t wait to find that out also.
My books are hot off the presses at Blurb! Take a sneak peek and place your order if you're so inclined by clicking on the cover photo above. An eBook version for download to your iPad or iPhone is now available in the iTunes store.
I live in Lewiston, Maine and have for most of my life. I've always had an interest in nature; as a kid I read books by Edwin Way Teal, Rachael Carson, among others, and I used to love studying the Golden Nature Guides. When I got into photography it was natural for me to take pictures of the natural world. A few years ago I got into kayaking and that allowed me to get to places I would never be able to by hiking and of course this gives me more photography oppurtunities. I realized years ago you don't have to travel to exotic locations to get good photographs. I have to admit I'm lucky to be living in a beautiful state with a lot of natural diversity, but I've taken good pictures right in my own back yard and neighborhood.

I think the second one is film, and don't ask me why, because I don't know. ;-) They are both beautiful pictures, and the color is soooooooo welcome!

Interesting question! I love being different, so I'll guess the purple one is film.

They are both perfect, so I'm not going to guess - and it would be a total guess, as I have no idea. They are beautiful.
