Hi, dearest Antonella! This one was made handheld, but often, very often I use tripod, especially if I shoot at the room or/and at the flower shop, because I don't like to use Flash and Lighting is not successful as usual there! You are absolutely right about ...! It was sunny day and you had seen one photo(portrait) of this session already :-) I was waiting for my daughter ... and even didn't think to shoot, but this Iris was so beautiful, I took my camera and tele-converter lens(Nikon TC-E15ED) from the car and made this shot! Handheld, without any special preparings... Exp.time-1/250s F.number-5.3, ISO-100... KISS AND HUG, dearest!
Hi my dearest Alesha, this is a marvelous photo, like all the others you take. I gather this one is taken with a full telephoto focal ( considering the DOF ) and closed aperture in order to focus the whole flower. I'd like to know if you use a tripod when you shoot your flowers or if you do them handheld. Many kisses,
