commented over 1 year agoalthough the flower is very pretty, the color of the photo is good as well, i do find that sometimes when macros are used there tends to be some detail lost. i see that the center is detailed but the rest of the flower gets sort of "lost". the detail in the petals tend to disappear..i think i would have loved to have seen more detail in the center than the surroundings..
Rusty Wood
commented over 1 year agoThanks for your comment A Macros is to bring out the center makings and you will lose details and focus on the outside. This is common on all Macros. You seem to be contradicting yourself. First you say there is more details in the center and less on the outside then at the end you say you would like to see more details in the center???
David Gillson
commented over 1 year agoVery pretty, Rusty. Your DOF is perfect!
Scott Camberlin
commented over 1 year agoI agree the center is good, but when you lose so much detail it sort of make the photo look fakeish. Why would you want to do that? Especially to one God's prettiest colors!!!!!!!!!!!!
