If you’ve got a wife, or a girlfriend or actually anyone that’s special you’ve probably already discovered something that puts a smile on that person’s face every single time you show up with it. Flowers. Now, aside from being beautiful and the fact that they smell rather nice, they also lend themselves to another great cause. Photography (was it so obvious?)
If you think about it, they’ re the perfect subjects. They don’t move (unless you’re outdoors), they don’t need make-up and wardrobe changes, they don’t whine when you’re fumbling around with your settings, trying to remain calm as your flashes misfire, or you triggers fail. They just stand there looking beautiful, what would a photographer want more?
Another thing that makes them really good for photography is that they’re so detailed. From far away they look really pretty and colorful, put if you take a close look at ‘em, and I mean a real close look at ‘em you’ll discover a whole new world. A detailed world, filled with endless textures, and details you’ll want to shoot. Welcome to the wonderful world of macro-photography.
After the jump, I’ll show you how I like to shoot ‘em and flash ‘em.
