A deep blue sky, the blinding sun, and some beautiful flowers… sounds like a winning combination. I took this on a digital compact and upped the colors a lot, so there’s grain. The grain adds to the feel of the image, in my opinion, but you’re out of luck if you don’t like it (it’s not noticeable at lower resolutions, of course). Use and enjoy.
