Taken in my mother's garden.
EOS 7D, 3.5/180L, f5.6, ISO 100, 1/80, tripod, cable release, MLU and waiting for a moment when there
was no wind.
Because of harsh sun light, I put a diffuser over the flower.
slight crop at top, bottom and right to get rid of some green on the right.
I tried to position the flower against a BG with other, OOF flowers.
This is another example why I recommend the 3.5/180 over the 2.8/100 (which I also own). With the shorter focal length, the BG would have been a mess. I shoot 90% of my flower images with that lens.
