This is another of our back yard iris photographed in the black box.  We utilized very oblique natural light, supplemented with a hand held reflector and a hand held barn door of black cardboard to control the light.  the flower is placed deep into a black box so the BG is black and very little light is actually on the flower itself.  In order to get DOF f32 was used at ISO 100 and 30 seconds.  5D4 with 100 f2.8 macro.  Thanks for looking.  comments most welcome.

Hi

A lovely image and a nicely worked still life; the lighting suit the subject matter to my mind at least


All the best
Matthew
