This is the last image I took in my macro session at home in January this year. It was a bit of a 'throw-away' shot - I'd run out of ideas - but I do really like it. I think the flowers are chrysanthemums - they were part of a larger arrangement of assorted cut flowers. I used a black felt sheet as background and a saline spray for the water droplets.
I thought the surrounding leaves and stems added nice context and colour, but they were a bit too dominating, so I used a dark vignette to obscure them a little.
Camera/lens settings: ISO 100, f/5, 0.77s, 90mm, tripod & ring light.
