| Tulip by window light |
Breezes that cause blossoms to sway to and fro outside make detailed close-up flower pictures difficult to capture. One of the advantages of photographing flowers indoors is that there is no wind to contend with. In addition, indirect window light, which I used here, is soft and enveloping, allowing the camera to record the fine textures in the petals. And you can purchase a variety of different flowers, both exotic and common, out of season to provide lots of picture options.
