how tall are those flowers? Very nicely done, I don't know that I could get under flowers to shoot them like that...and be able to get back up. Good luck this week.

Thanks, these are ordinary daisies, maybe half a meter tall.
I often carry a digicam (in addition to DSLR), because these kind of angles (and macros) are so easy with a smaller tool

Like the different angle here! Love that dark blue sky - helps the flowers to pop out.
Regards!

Hi Jouko,

I love the perspective on this shot. The title fits perfectly and I think daisies are exactly the right flower to choose. Great idea and even better execution.

Thanks Steve... these daisies were growing on a steep slope, and when I first saw them I saw them from underneath, so the decision of the angle was an easy one

Lovely shot, Jouko! I especially like the loose diagonal the flowers make across the plane of the photo. Nice work!

All the best,

Endre
