Had another go at the yellow daisies with a vanilla 240mm Sironar at f45.
In fact, there is more depth and focus still slips away towards the rear with grace.

Much more impact with this one, Christopher.

I agree with Jim. The wider tonal range definitely increases the impact of the image. Nice job on the redo!

Christopher,

Of all the books on photography I have, the one you have not written yet on stills is my favorite.

Ron, all I know fits on a single page. The daisies are getting tatty - but I'm not through yet. This morning I got stronger relief on the right and added some low value flowers into to the dark side. Still with a Sironar 240mm on 8x10 TMX with a blue filter.

Christopher,

What is the blue filter doing for you in this scene? I admit I have one but have never used it.

Ron, Blue filter to tame the yellow daisies. Opposite of yellow filter to tame blue sky.
