Good Things come in Threes

Hi all.


I am posting this hear in Photo Art since I feel that it is best suited here. This was three separate exposures, all combined in camera with the D80 mulitple exposure function. I took one shot for each of the three blooms.

I did clone out one petal that was peaking in from the right hand side. I also cloned out a dead flower head that was in the bottom center of the frame.

Any and all thoughts appreciated.

Nathan

Nikon D80, Sigma 180 macro, tripod, ISO 100, f3.5, three exposures in Camera, this was also rotated 90 degrees counter-clockwise (I liked it better like that)

This is an absolute stunner, Nathan. I have lost count of the Rock Daisy beauties you have posted. Each one better than the previous :toast: :toast:

Nathan,

Did you notice these weren't in focus? (smile) Beautiful work. I particularly like the colors and the composition.

You did well on your placement of the flowers, their dof and the total effect is very soft and soothing. Well done!

Congrats, Nathan. I love this. I'm trying the multiple exposures but I'm having difficulty learning. Your image inspires me to keep trying!!!

Excellent, Nathan! Very ethereal. What a great combination of colors--green and
purple with a dash of yellow.
