Default Shooting Star Iris



Shot on an extremely windy day where the flower was flying around like a bee!
I took a lot of shots to capture this one, where I constantly attempted to follow
the flower, and to catch it just as it was about to change direction. This motion
blurred the background but kept the blossom and leaf tip distinct.

Camera: Olympus E1
Lens: Olympus 50 mm Macro Prime
Exposure 1/250 at f / 4.5
ISO: 100

Lighting: Available direct bright sunlight.

Thanks for looking

Gary
