dirtdorphins said:Carol, I'm dying of curiosity--is this some kind of special effect and/or how are you getting these "floating" flowers???
I think it works best with the cornflower because it is more of a top down perspective and thus the mind's eye or the viewer's brain can put a hidden stem on that flower and it makes sense to the mind.
Anyway--it looks cool and I'd really like to know what the magic trick is!

Recently I tried a 16mm, f/1.4 lens that I didn't buy but would love to have. It produced "cat's eye" type of bokeh. I'm not completely sure I like it for rose or flower photography because it could be distracting but I only took this one photo so I need to know more about how it works!
This lens lets you get very close to the subject but it's actually a wide angle lens and much lighter than my 80mm macro. I don't have to keep backing up from the subject to take the photo and get the dreamy background.
There's so much to know about everything!
