Arum II
Same techs as earlier shot.

The colour variation in these Arum in a small patch of woodland was quite interesting

Prefer this one to your last Arum shot Mike, the single plants works so much better compositionally, beautiful colours too.

Thanks Andy

Note to self, must invest in some focus stacking software. Ideally I should have taken several wide aperture shots to get the hood tip in focus and control the background mush slightly better.

Hi Mike,

Nice shot, that fine purple edge running round the flower is super! You have already picked up on the nit.

Cheers,

Lewis.

Hi Mike

I prefer this version, great lighting and colours :toast:

You have covered the only nit yourself :wink:

This one for me too. The oof leaf at the top of the image could do with a slight knock back but no biggy.
