Re: Macro flower photographs
Stumbled on the field of sunflowers, not typical in my area.

Macro flower
I love my 100mm macro and I am always trying to get closer. What do you think?
Sunflower, from up-close!

Re: Macro flower
Bryan and Louise, I enjoyed both of your photos --even though sunflowers are not my favourite flowers!

Re: Macro flower photographs
Peter, good depth of field in the rhodo photo. Was it a longish exposure with the aperture stopped well down?

Re: Macro flower photographs
I'm new to the CIC forum but I thought that I might as well jump right in. I hope that I am doing it right.
I have been very impressed with some of the work on this thread. These two are a couple of the ones I took this week of the Hydrangea in my front yard.

Re: Macro flower photographs
I guess not.
Attempt number two. Hopefully it will work this time.
Sorry about that.

Re: Macro flower photographs
Ian, welcome to CiC and congratulations on the hydrangea photos. My favourite is probably the first. Were these handheld or with a tripod?

Re: Macro flower photographs
Aperture was at F/11, but I think the size of the flower may play a role here. It looks delicate, but is quite big actually. That would help the impression of DOF of course. Originally Posted by Cantab

Re: Macro flower photographs
Ian, that blue is pretty blue. It is good to have that leaf there for colour comparison, otherwise one might think it wasn't real. Very nice and I actually like the composition of that green and blue together.

Re: Macro flower photographs
Thanks for the nice comment. These were handheld.

Re: Macro flower photographs
Welcome Ian
As Bruce I tend to prefer the first, but the second has a nice colour contrast.

Re: Macro flower photographs
Just notice that the edges of the petals are very visible. That is the flower itself, not any sharpening in PP. I don't do sharpening anymore.Last edited by Letrow; 21st August 2013 at 07:46 AM.
