Holly Blue in my garden
I saw this Holly Blue in my own garden last year. Lucky me.
iso 200 1/125 sec. F9 hand held. Fill flash set to -2.3 EV

All the best,
Edwin Kats

Beautiful! The dof, colours and textures are all stunning. Is this using a ring flash? Tristan

A lovely picture. Skilfully photographed and processed. Something I and I'm sure others here aspire to.

Thanks guys.

I've never used a ringflash. I often use the Nikon SB-28 on a Kirk bracket.

cheers,

Edwin Kats
