The shot was taken with the 100 f2.8, and lighting was with a flash held under and slightly in front of the flower pointing upward. I was handholding both, so I was glad to be able to keep the camera still enough. Used servo mode, 1/300, f5.6. Ambient lighting was overcast evening outdoors. Some minor RAW conversion and sharpening, but no other pp.
We have a yard full of flowering plants, so I'm always trying to find new takes. This idea came to me while playing basketball in the drive with my son. We finished our game, I ran in to grab the camera, snapped 10, and then went in to watch the Lakers.
