Floral photography

[Brownie]

I saw some Water Lilies in a pond beside the road and pulled over to take a pic. Unfortunately, I think I needed a longer lens.

Fine example of a natural frame. Any 'closer' would've ruined it.

Nice colors, very vibrant.

Nice colors, very vibrant.

That macro lens is bloody sensitive for a focus stack. The R5 auto stack made it to 70 shots when I stopped it! That's already more photos than I take in a week!

Not to interrupt the flow here but I could not help but notice that the OP of this thread was reasonably active and had good skills but has not posted in nearly 3 years. Kind of a bummer. I wonder what happened. Hopefully, she is safe and well.

These things are tiny! Thought it was a good opportunity to try out the 1:1 capabilities of this lens with the teleconverter.

Tricyrtis hirta 'Miyazaki', the Toad Lily, in my garden.

Both images were produced by focus stacking in Helicon Focus. The second was taken at f2.8 in order to throw the background as far out of focus as possible.
