  • Dandelion seed trials

    Tried balancing and refracting a flower in the centre of the dandelion seed, not quite worked it out yet, but work in progress.

    First one is a yellow poppy, not too keen on focussing as it's missed but do like the angles of the dandelion.

    Second one is a rose, better focus but still not there.

              You need to nail the focus on the seed maybe focus stack a few frames you also need to light the seed as it looks like it is not at the moment. A well diffused flash would be my choice but an LED lamp would work on a static set up.
