Playing around with the macro of my Z1, I had the camera sat on the floor of the local park. CC welcome.

can you change the settings on the Z1??? like adjust the Exposure compensation to -3 or -7?? the white is OE i also find the blade of grass covering the flower distracting when i shoot shrooms... i always look in viewfinder and then break off any grass twigs in my line of sight... it helps for a better composition

Trouble was that i couldnt see the viewfinder very well cos it was so sunny so had to kinda wing it. yeah you can adjust it manually but actually auto macro always seems to do a better job.

Good shot looks well composed looks like it should be slightly brighter in the grass. This would look really cool with a soft glow around the daisy. Also I would crop off that bottom inch of the photo where the grass is out of focus. I would say you have a winner there
