Re: [OM] Backlit Tulips

[Chuck Norcutt]

Although the histogram tells me there's red clipping and your modified 
image tells me there's lots of "pure white" (red = 255) my eyes only see 
a very pleasant backlit but still very red image.  My eyes say, "ain't 
white, ain't pink", just bright red.  Good enough for me.
ps:  Your unblown reds here 
<http://zone-10.com/tope2/main.php?g2_itemId=12473> are fine but look 
dark in comparison.  They do not proclaim "backlit".
