Ursula's painting from Kiki's delivery service. It was painted by the students at a special school for challenged children. Miyazaki added Kiki's face and Oga, one of the art staff members, also did some touch-ups. It is titled "The Ship Flying over the Rainbow".
Some of the stuff I've learned about photography recently is that you shouldn't over-edit your photos, they will just look fake even if you're skilled at it. I've always paid attention to the focus, but recently I learned that you shouldn't be happy about ANY focus point. As for light, you should try to get mild light not direct sunlight, especially if you're shooting flowers, so choose a cloudy day, dawn, or afternoon.
I've read in more than a place that roses' photos should have kinda clear or at least neutral backgrounds, but I feel it ruins the photo's spontaneity, I don't know..
I know that I've like million things to learn still, but I think I'm kinda getting better.
Some photos from our picnic yesterday.
