March 2023 Image of The Month
Orchid by Ross Collins
Ross writes about his image:
I took this photo a couple of years ago in my Sunroom while experimenting with the portrait mode on my iPhone 12 Pro. It was my first phone that allowed me to take photos in RAW, and has been pretty handy when I don’t have the time to take my DSLR with me on my day job at AT&T.
This photo was taken in portrait mode that resulted in an HEIF file, which has a smaller file size and a higher image quality than the standard JPEG. Photo shows 52 mm f2, ISO 250, 1/64 second.
Congratulations Ross on an excellent image. Look for Ross’ image in the Daily courier soon!
