inside a daffodil
this species of daffodil is growing in my front yard, was out the other day shooting macros and had to play w/ this one, i was leaning against the flowerbed stone wall, kinda twisted to get this just right since my lighting on the bottom one wasnt quite what i wanted, finally i twisted and turned just right :)
shot this macro using a nikon diopter lens attached to a canon 75-300mm lens

Thank you Chris.. I was away all last week and busy as hell the week before. Absolutely nothing wrong with men photographing flowers! I think a lot of men shy away from them because they feel its too feminine..and that is just crap, makes me think “he” has a soft side..LOL Your right capturing beauty is all that matters!!
Christopher E... replied
aha..well welcome home then! and shhhhhhh you will kill my rep about having a soft side!! :D

Quite beautiful. Petals like this remind me of Dior gowns, and I think the man had flowers in mind when he worked. It’s such a great experience to see such things close up, helps to understand them better. Nice work, Christopher.

Daffodils are not the easiest macros to shoot imho Chris, due to their shape. This is terrific! Well done!
