I have to give credit to MayaM for the idea, she had a similar pic entered in 2006.

i'm pretty pleased with the result =)


it's just one 24x36 softbox on an alienbees B400 flash head from above down at a 45 ish degree angle...

the floor is just an old beat up blue towel

If it does well, I'll post some setup pics, If I forget to, and you want some setup pics, please PM me, and I'll add them =)

Reminds me of this photo:


This is nice, border might be a bit too much and I find it a bit too contrasty.

Great idea! Beautiful colors, crisp and clear.The deep blue background and white petals with just the right DOF make this photo POP!

I like this with the blue background and scattered petals. I think it really works. However, in the middle bottom of the pic, there is a white mark that isn't the shape of a petal. It's kinda distracting.

Has a lot of potential, but it has a weird grey spot right above the flower... did you go crazy with the spot edit tool?!?!?






LOL... just kidding. Nice image Eric, good luck in the challenge. no vote.

The inner border distracts my eye but doesn't diminish the photo overall. Nicely done.
