Default My crown and glory

Yes, I've been playing again.
I would love to know, is it possible to get all of the crown in focus, without expensive lighting?

Hi Michele - great results from your experiment .. have you try shooting manual .. me thinks once you preset focus - (and other stuff), it should be pretty much it .. give it a go if you haven't done so

Nicely done Michele, I still haven't taken one of these pictures I'd be happy to publish, but you inspire me act in accordance with an old school report from my French teacher, must try harder. I like all four, although I favour the first and second, good job
