[QUOTE="marce, post: 189510, member: 10684"] No mine was shot inside under controlled lighting, it makes all the difference. To be honest as single flowers and in a bunch of two or three, I still think as a subject they look better in the wild. As stated a focus stacked image of a field of them would look awesome. Flowers are one of my favourite subjects, both in the wild and studio shots. I do find in the wild shots challenging, I am currently working on a project of British Hedgerow and meadow flowers (weeds :)). I am aiming for single isolated stems with a nicely defocused and blurred background and have taken a few test shots, but so far have not been impressed with my results. So I think this project will go on a back burner till next spring. My other attempts are studio shots, where I have had more success. Here are a few 'creative' shots done with multiple flash units, and one using a mirror and a black velvet background (not crushed velvet). [/QUOTE]
