The tickseed and blanket flower grow wild here, not so sure about this variety of daisy. Despite that, these are from our garden, taken inside and posed in front of a printed background. This is the same background as in the previous lily stack, just moved a little further back and with the flash a little lower to reduce the pea-greenness, critiqued by Nancy in that stack.
A stack of 60 images composited with Zerene, both DMap and PMax stacks made and the bloom edges and backround from the DMap used in the final image.
To get the yellows to have more range, local contrast was increased (contrast reduced a bit and then unsharp mask at a wide radius)
