Agree - lovely light and composition

What Alan said. Beautiful work Jules - in every way.

Just curious, but given the very narrow DOF in this shot, is this the result of combining two shots?

It's just that I noticed that for example, the stems are OOF but each seed pod is sharp.

BTW, I sometimes focus separately on the main flower head in a "flower shot" and again on the stem, and then clone in the stem. Have a look at one of my recent posts here where I did that. Sometimes useful to do when dealing with a very narrow DOF.

All the one photo. That difference is I believe, due to looking down towards them. I had wondered the same myself.

Gorgeous colours, and pretty orbs in lovely light with good composition.
Well shot.

Beautiful photo Jules, great bokeh as well. Looks completely different to the poppy seeds on my horse shoe roll.
