Summer is back for a few days and it is a pleasure to visit our local Botanical Garden as an afterwork "rehabilitation". Sun is low now and when I reach there no backlighting any more. Tripod, reflector, torch and almost no breeze. I wanted to use a free bounced flash with remote releas ( but battery was gone ) The glowing red is a challenge any time. Canon 5D MKII with R Elmarit 90 mm + R Elmarit 60 mm macro R 60 mm macro

this is a further sample from my new illumination project. On sunday it was warm but overcast and at 7 p.m there was already a touch of dusk settling in. o a grey and dull atmosphere. And this light was being mixed with the flash. Canon 5D MKII + Elmarit R 60 mm macro+handheld flash bounced against a reflector from almost below the blossom.

Our local Botanical Garden is a fine after work recreation area. I tried out something when sun was very low and most flower beds were already veiled by summer's dusk. Canon 5D MKII with Elmarit R 60 mm macro plus Leica APO converter 2x, tripod, reflector and free external flash. It is a matter of patience and time to manipulate flash power and angle plus distance to reflector. flash bounced against reflector from slightly left flash bounced against reflector from above left without flash, only with reflector, longtime exposure approx. 1/2 - 1 sec.

the best afterwork relaxation is a visit to our local Botanical Garden. It is close and one has not to haul along the gear very much. These days light is fading more quickly and I was in a hurry to catch some last light, a reflector helped. both with Canon 5D MKII + Elmarit R 180 mm
