Daff in the dark

I haven't done a PWL shot for a while, so as my kid is a flower nut and picked this for me from the front garden I thought I'd record the moment.

Ok simple set-up this time. Sheet of white A4 printer paper leaning against a box of cereal on my kitchen table. Manual focus camera on flower then turn all lights off. Set long exposure, 20 seconds in this case. Stop well down for plenty of depth of field, went for f20 tonight.

Trip shutter then use Mini-Maglite to illuminate flower focussing mainly on the stem as a point of interest.

Et voila!
