Iduna Posted July 26, 2013 Share #1 Posted July 26, 2013 Advertisement (gone after registration) this is my very first series of my new setup with Canon 5D MKII+Elmarit 180 mm, tripod, flashlight and handheld silver reflector. A quiet evening in our local Botanical Garden. You may have a look and perhaps you may enjoy the walk. Welcome, dear visitor!

platypus Posted July 27, 2013 Share #3 Posted July 27, 2013 These are really beautiful, particularly the first image with it's great use of backlighting. We are so deprived of colours and flowers here right now as we are in the middle of winter. These lovely shots are a pleasure to see. Dee. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karl G Posted July 27, 2013 Share #4 Posted July 27, 2013 You are getting some nice light with your combo. Very pleasing pictures. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauledell Posted July 27, 2013 Share #5 Posted July 27, 2013 Iduna, A striking series of the flowers with vivid colors, fine lighting and sharp focus. Paul Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iduna Posted July 27, 2013 Author Share #6 Posted July 27, 2013 Stuart, thank you for taking time and your response. Dee, that is good and makes me feel that these pictures have a meaning. The first one is also my favourite and it was very tricky to get the light right. I have 2 other options but selected this one. Karl, thanks for your encouraging comment. Paul, usually there always an interesting point of issue in your answers. Here I am quite happy you mentioned the focus. With these lenses one has to paln carefully and only at the PC you see whether you got the focus right. I use a polarizer and a focus screen for manual focussing which both make the screen darker. But you get used to this and sometimes I use an additional lamp when daylight is getting low. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
