Title: Discovered my local florist
Post by: wmchauncey on May 21, 2014, 04:02:12 am

I've got this east facing patio window that provides great light for these kitchen shots of flowers using a cloth spread on the floor for background.
They involve stacked macro images then merged in PS to create large images.

Nicely done. An excellent argument for focus stacking.

Thanks guys...it seems as if I can take "technically correct" images anytime but, finding the artistically appealing image is a rarity.  ;)

You probably ought to check in with some seed catalogue publishers, Chauncy, and see if they might be interested.
