The backlighting on this web caught my attention. Basic processing in LR6 resulted in an OK image but I took it further to include a Photomorphis texture screen in hard light mode which (I feel) gave it a more dimensional effect.
The Arabian Starflower (Ornithogalum arabicum) -and I believe every Star of Bethlemen flower species, performs brilliantly under ultraviolet light. I’ve ordered bulbs from a few more species to confirm it, our gardens should be even more spectacular this coming year.
I suppose it’s helpful to see a “behind the scenes” view of this flower and the setup, which you can find here: donkom.ca/bts/IMG_6842.jpeg
I have a good number of ultraviolet lights being used here, most of them are the Convoy S2 plus a Convoy C8 placed at a distance – it has a much narrower beam and that extra distance helps it cover the subject better. Everything is controlled by a contraption made from Platypod bases, gooseneck arms, and clamps. Generally speaking, this is my typically studio setup for ultraviolet fluorescence work – the lights are placed quite close to the subject.
However, the proximity and intensity of UV light on certain plants generates a reaction. Some plants burn, others move. That makes it difficult to focus-stack these images, since there will be a small variance between shots. A technique I’ve utilized for years is to shoot in the camera’s “high-resolution” mode, sometimes referred to as pixel-shift mode, which allows me to generate a photograph four times larger in resolution than would normally be possible.
The theory is this: the closer you get to your subject, the shallower the depth of field. The inverse is also true, getting farther away maximizes the amount in focus. The camera needs to take eight shots in quick succession (some models shoot more, some less), but the overall time is still short compared to focus stacking. This is a manual stack of two separate images, manually layered in due to the movement that prevents automation.
This was shot on the new Lumix S1R II, and it has a secret weapon compared to its predecessor: longer exposures in high-res mode. The S1R was limited to 1-second exposures using this feature, but the S1R II can shoot up to eight second exposures. This was a two-second exposure.
These techniques and so much more are covered the second edition of my book Macro Photography: The Universe at Our Feet, now with worldwide shipping. Amazon in the US is awaiting their resupply, but you can buy direct from the publisher with global free shipping: www.routledge.com/Macro-Photography-The-Universe-at-Our-F...

week 21/52 press L!
i'm kinda maybe sorta addicted to square photos, oops.
i went outside to feed my dog this morning and noticed this web getting caught by the morning light so i snapped this just before school. i wish i had a macro lens to capture really nice close-ups but unfortunately i'm a broke, unemployed student so i just took this with a standard lens, sigh.
hope you're all having a good week, thank you for all the support ♥
I didn't remember about this photo..I took it almost 3 years ago with a compact fotocamera.
I like it ;)

Noticed this spider's web just as I was leaving my house. The sunlight was hitting it in such a way that only half-of it was readily visible and the spider silk was bending the light to give it a rainbow effect just on the strands of webbing.
It was a matter of luck and timing as any earlier or later, the light would not have bounced off it in the right way to cause this effect.
Dozens of spider webs were present along the American River. The fog added some moisture to the web highlighting the structure as it was illuminated in the morning light.
Still learning how to use the Olympus PL3, so far it has great 'out-of-camera' results. I'm impressed how well it holds up at iso 1600. It's a great camera for travel. In my case it goes running with me along the river trail to catch these kind of opportunities.
