Thanks, Fran.. Yeah.. I should have cleaned up the dead bloom. As to the yellow portion, I was a bit disappointed that not the whole area was in focus.. Will watch out for that in the future. Your comment helps my considerations during post-processing. |

Hi Tom, Thank you very much for the touch on the image. That improved it tremendously. Love it.
Yes, I will be experimenting shooting 1:1. Greatly appreciate your pointers. These day, I am trying to capture some winter snow images. Will work on this macro project by Spring time.
Enjoying all the comments and tips for my learning process. Please keep coming. Thanks. |

Carol, very nice shot.. esp handheld with 60mm macro.. You have to get really close and not scared the subject away. Like the lighting.. Were you at EV0? or had to increase 1 or 2 EV+?

Thanks, Stuart. So at f2.8, the depth of field is also acceptable in this case? Sorry I am trying to understand the physics so I can take a better shot next time. Thanks for all the help. |

Thanks, Carol. Yes, I also noticed that some of the yellow part is out of focus.. I tried multiple shots and they were similar. From the ACR reading, the aperture is f/10. That is something kept bothering me (when shooting these kinds of close-up shots).. I always have trouble getting the parts I want all in-focus. Would that have something to do with what focus mode I used? (single point, 9 points, 21 points, etc)?

Hi Pat, thanks for your comments. Glad you like the capture.
Yes, I took the picture when I was attracted by the morning sunlight spotting on the yellow bloom and the zebra stripes, while the rest of the flower was largely in the shadow.
My new year resolution is to get into making some nice 1:1 macro compositions.. still learning.. |
