Hi
thank you for your kind comments on the flower ;-)
@ Douglas
I like very much what you did with the glass bowl ! I will most certainly
try the reflector-idea. !
@David
a bit more light (as Douglas said also) it will be. I wonder : would that
give a more sharp impression of the heart of the flower ? As in : more
contrast = sharper picture ? I have the impression the picture should be
even sharper, what do you think ?
@Aram
In fact i even underexposed -0.3, because they say the D300 overexposes a
bit ... Wrong choice ... I will try what you suggested.
Also i will remove the leave, that would be no problem at all.
As for the D300s : i was afraid it woul not work well with the manual
lenses, but the opposit is true. The view finder is ok, if you tell the
camera the max aperture it will even give you matrix metering... And the iso
capacities are amazing as well. Even more amazing is auto-iso for indoors
photos.
I prefer a natural background as well, but it is freezing outside, and i did
not want to end the life of my orchid faster than necessary. I took a very
nice picture of an orchid in the garden this summer with the angenieux and
my R3, and it was so beautifull. It is on film, sorry can't show it to you
...
I like the creamy look of the background. In fact, it was one of the main
reasons why I wanted to adapt the angenieux to the nikon ...
I hope i will send you all an even more beautifull orchid next time ;-)
sorry for my poor english
and thank you
Axel
