Well, the title pretty much explains it! It's my first try at this so be gentle :blushing:

Beautiful!! Love the detail you captured. You picked a great flower for b/w :thumbup:

I just shot some flowers like your avatar the other day :mrgreen:

Thanks woodsac!

Very nice! The DoF is actually about 1cm, isn't it? Very interesting.

I guess my thing about flowers (and I am no expert at shooting them, for sure) is that I want the entire subject to have enough depth of field to see it except in very rare circumstances. So, I'd want to s-t-r-e-t-c-h that dof out to see the flower. If you want the background to drop out, fine. Good eye though and you're working in a direction that's very well informed.
