So effective, Wolfgang. Tell us how you set up for this. Just a random snap or you devised this concept?

Hi Asher,

Just the 5DMark III and the good old Canon EF 100mm on a tripod with available light.

I'm in the lucky position of having flower arrangements around me as we have these flowers growing in our garden and my wife has the "lucky hand" for arrangements.
So I just have to use my "photographic eye" )) from time to time ...
And not least we have great windows where the light often is perfect for pictures like these ...
So it is a kind of snapshot but it is some kind of thinking it over or prepared too.
And I just have to use what the situations do offer!

I love this image Wolfgang, I think there is a strange sort of interplay happening - the shapes are sharp and dynamic and almost threatening but the beautiful colour palette with it's bright happiness and soft pastels diffuses that superbly.
Very interesting and very beautiful.
