Capture Striking Photos - Flower Photography

Flowers and plants are a popular subject for photography, full of color, texture, patterns and personality. During the winter we can still find plentiful subjects in greenhouses and conservatories to photograph in somewhat natural window light.

•       Slow Down & Learn to See

Train to see details, look for exciting lines, rich curves, a distinctive curl of a petal or a leaf. Learn to notice and focus more on abstract, lines, color, texture and patterns. Slow down and sharpen your photographic skills to find interesting and unique objects. You will find more impactful objects.

•       Experiment with Aperture & Depth of Field

Try shooting with the lower apertures of f/2.8 to f/6.3 for selective focus to bring one element of the flower in focus like the edge of a petal, a leaf, a ruffle of an orchid.
