Nice one, Maria

How did you get the simple background - that is my biggest problem when shooting in my garden ?
Did you use some kind of screen ?

Best regards
Peter

Hi Peter these Dahlia's are in a pot against a grey pebble dash wall, i pulled the pot away from the wall about 3 ft which gave a pale background, f stop 2.4 making it nice and soft. If you don't like the background but do like the flower you can always cut it off and place it where you want it, it can always be put in a vase if you don't want to throw it away
