Don't take flower pictures in direct sunlight.Plants look great in the sun with the naked eye,but neither film or digital can cope with the increased contrast. Overcast conditions are usually best,colors then saturate & your pictures will still look really bright,but even more colorful.There are exceptions to this though.In such cases, try using a polarizing filter to reduce glare & enhance the colors

The above picture was taken just minutes before sunrise. Natural lighting gives dramatic effects to your pictures. I used a sony w210. The key to taking good pictures is to be on the look out for anything and everything that is capable of capturing your imagination. The camera was slightly angled so as to get the composition right. i needed a soft image of the cycle along with the background. The camera was set into the program mode, and i made slight adjustments to the exposure to make the image a little darker. The cycle is positioned on to one side so as to provide depth to the image.
