Just experimenting with taking photos from different angles and the sun behind a daisy. Any suggestions of how to improve the composition or post-processing are welcome. Ned

Nice perspective! I like the contrast and detail in the first photo best.

The first one is the best, but each of the others offers something interesting. It's a nice series.
I think on the second one you might try brightening it a bit - not a huge amount as you'd lose the detail in the petals quickly. The third one is really interesting - I would have never thought to photograph it that way (I'd be more likely to shoot the second one). It's neat, I like it too. The use of flash (I assume you used flash to get the stem green) worked very well. The 4th one is a bit soft - I prefer the dof in the first one better. I also like the last one, but find the cut-off flowers in the bottom a bit distracting. I wouldn't crop them out - I like the framing as it is. Perhaps clone out the two bottom ones? I don't know, might make it less balanced. It would be something to experiment with but might not be an improvement. In any case, it's only a little thing, not something to toss the photo out over, it's really fine the way it is. |

Hi Harriet! Thank you for your help suggestions and comment, glad you liked the photos. With regard to the last photo, well I felt something was lacking... in the composition... but getting under a daisy, well not much room... anyway, I am not too good at cloning things out, but I did do a slightly different crop. Wonder if this helps. Again, my thanks.

Nice series Ned, love the perspective and the juxtaposition of the white flower on the blue background.
Number one is a knock out! Lou |
