I am running around a bit at the moment and am finding it hard to get to all of your blogs - but things will be back to normal next week and I promise to be back to comment and check out all your wonderful and inspiring pictures.
Totally inspired by all the awesome macro images here at AM3 I decided to try my hand at a few flower macro's.
I have changed some of the macro's from this week's shoot as I have been practising and found I preferred the newer pics to some of the original pictures I took. This is one of the changes I made. I had left over flowers from an arrangement I did for our church on Sunday and I took a few shots of it using bounce flash.
Comments and constructive criticism are more than welcome. I'd love to know what you think.
Thank You so much for visiting and commenting on my blog!! It is greatly appreciated.
I am away for the next week and have posted till I come back. I hope you enjoy the images!!! I will catch up with all of your blogs when I get back.
Have an awesome week everyone! :)
I love the petals.

A wonderful close up shot Mandy. I love the way the petals are unfurling.

It's outstanding; the macro gives it an almost exploding fireworks look. Nice one.

Wow, great job with the macro! The petals look wonderful.

ah, yes, bounce flash or the use of some kind of diffuser can work wonders and take away the harshness that otherwise is there. Experiments are good!
