1. Pretty Pastels
BY TONYNORTH
This beautiful group of cyclamens is a composite. The flowers were photographed individually on a lightbox and combined in Photoshop, using the Multiply blending mode to create the semitransparent effect. We love the pastel colours, the placement of the flowers at different heights to balance the frame, and how the rule of odds has been used to perfect the composition.
Camera: Nikon D500
Lens: 105mm f/2.8
Exposure: 1/6 sec, f/16, ISO160
2. Flower of Cactus
BY MURVEL48
The Nikon Z 7’s built-in focus shift function was put to good use while photographing this incredibly detailed flower head. A whopping 30 images were combined in post-production to achieve front-to-back sharpness. We also like what appears to be some very tasteful colour popping, which really highlights the grandeur of the flower’s pistil.
Camera: Nikon Z 7
Lens: 105mm f/2.8
Exposure: 1/125 sec, f/8, ISO100
