Tripod Canon 1DX Canon 180mm macro, 1/100 sec f16
This is more of a technical exercise than an attractive image really. The image was taken in the wildflower area of our back garden. Miro he posted a pasqueflower recently and he mentioned the white umbrella, so I got a white umbrella - from China £3.95 including postage! I held the brolly in my left hand whilst holding on to the tripod head this diffused the light over the flower and background.
I have recently been learning how to use Luminosity masks and I used them on this one to try to give the best detail in the flower petals.
All C&C welcome.
