Subject: Dendrobium sp.
Equipment: D2H, Nikon 85mm t/s, fully tilted at f11, window light

I wanted to post this to show the power of a tilt lens for flower photography but EJ beat me to it :) For reference, the subject is about 4" high and about 5" front to back - I wanted to look down the throat of the individual flowers but they were at about 45degrees to the stem.

Also, I was playing with some of Capture's settings and to my mind it's sepia toning is one of the best out there.

Hey Andrew, Very cool look with the sepia. Excellent DOF with the tilt lens. Like the black BG. :D
