Pentax K100D, Takumar-F 28-80 with 12 mm and 20 mm extension tubes, 1/3 second, combination of very late afternoon sunlight through windows plus overhead fluorescent light. I have another, darker exposure and enjoy the difference in mood.
I love that you did this 'in camera' and not through post-processing. The softness of the petals really comes through with your choice of lighting. I'm still out on what I think about the crop - but I can't quite put my finger on it. It's nice but it feels a bit cut off? I'm also thinking this would be a nice vertical orientation instead of horizontal as the petals tend to point to the far ends, making me want to see what it would look like if they were pointing up and down.
Excellent composition Stuart,
I like the soft subdued colors and the framing. you have good details and the texture is what makes this one for me...congrats...:cool:
