p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Florals (of a sort anyway)


On Friday I bought myself a 5D Mark III to go along with my existing 7D, I haven't had chance to get any bird or animal shots with it yet, but here are three floral (sort of) subjects that I think just qualify for this forum!

I'm enjoying the new camera, it seems to be just as advertised and I'm looking forward to trying the AF system out on some BIFs in due course.

C&C on the following most welcome.

No.1 and 2 - Cardoons

No.3 Fungi family portrait?

Thanks for looking,
Paul

Congratulations on the new body Paul, I'm SURE you are going to love it!! If your "test" shots are any indication this body will produce magic in your hands. 1 is a lovely still life, 2 is a wonderfully strong comp, I love it and 3 is sublime, simplistic beauty. Super set Paul

Paul,
Three entirely different takes and three excellent results.
The mushies image has the greatest appeal to me, but that's probably because I love them (although not for eating) .

Good looking set Paul. #2 is my favorite - nicely balanced focused and oof flower heads. A pretty and pleasing image.

Test shots looks great, your added effort for pleasing comps makes for great impact in each.

These are a challenge, you got them all right IMO, working DOF and layering as well as grouping, sweet trio to go with your 5D MarkIII!

#3 is my favorite. Very simple, but well composed and scaled.

Thanks.
