Red Gerbera #3

Gallery: FloraPosted March 28, 201188 views5 comments

Here's number 3 of the red gerbera series.Sorry Bill I had to have one showing the back!

I took 5 shots at different points of focus to test Photoshop's focus stacking but alas the results continue to show too much ghosting. I gotta get Helicon focus. This is my favorite of the 5.

D7000
150mm macro
ISO 100
f5.6
1/3 second

Comments and critiques welcome

I like this perspective Steve, the colors pop off the BG. Well done.

Good looking image Steve. I like the lighting, composition and the detail. Nothing wrong with the bg either. (smile)

Great comp, colors and BG. Wish there was a little more dof on the front petals but it;s certainly a fine shot as is.

Maybe just a little more practice? Comp and color is great. Admire you for trying the image stacking; I STILL can't get my head around it.
