Very nice pictures, Ray and Marcell

Our first peony.

Nice shot of the peony.

Here's some flax.

Marcell,
that orchid looks like as if it is floating in the air. That is what I meant.

Sury

Oh, I understand. Actually it was kind of floating in the air but you can see a bit in the right top corner the stem. I added a bit of back light.

Nice shots Valery and the_hefay. I love the contrast between the blurred background
and the flowers. Gives it a 3D feel to the images.

Some blossom with a Minolta 7D



Flowering chive with a Sony A57.



And finally a tiger lily with a Sony A700.

The first one is very dramatic, Tony. Nice set.

[Cogito]

Thanks, Sury. I don't know why I sold the 7D.

[Birma]

Lovely colours Tony

Good one Valery. I love the details on the petal.

Not exactly flowers ...Taking poetic license...

A beautiful Iris, Valery

Some interesting shapes and textures there, Sury

Sury, I like your second photo a lot, but I would further improve the concept. I think you can turn somehow this plant to have a better background.

Cheers

Marcell, I see what you mean. Let me get a shot keeping in mind your suggestion.
