Playing around with my camera - February 2015 - Part 2

As you probably know by now, I'm actually on holiday at the moment (Happy New Year!).

While I'm out, you can look at another picture taken while I was playing around with my camera.

The below picture is really something that couldn't have been done with my old point and shoot.  My new ILC was able to focus on the plant close to me while keeping the background relatively blurry.  This really makes the detail on the plant stand out and I like the framing with the color just behind it.

As with my previous photo, I did a little post processing to bring out the green in the plant a bit more.

I love the blurry background which just can't be done on point and shoots
