Bonjour Fred,
Comme pour tes clichés précédents, j'apprécie beaucoup ta gestion de la lumière et une maîtrise du flash qui restitue des couleurs très naturelles. La macro est ici aussi spectaculaire pour la restitution des textures et des détails. Un peu trop peut être car il est difficile de s'y retrouver dans l'anatomie de la fleur (pétales, sépales, éperon ...).

Hi Fred

Great capture of this minute Bulbophyllum. That must be about 3-4mm little flowers. The genus consist of ±1,689 species of which most of them are very small flowers, but I don't know how many of these can be found on Reunion.

The wide aperture really assisted you to obtain sufficient DOF to capture all the lovely details of the dainty and overwhelming greenish flowers. The colours are very natural and the OOF and isolated BG enhances the subject very well. The fill-in flash was put to excellent use thus resulting in great exposure control.

Good work and TFS.
Regards
Loot
