This book covers all the practical skills and aesthetic considerations involved in photographing this popular subject. Split into three comprehensive sections, the book covers technical matters, such as choice of equipment, lighting, exposure and depth of field; colour theory, including the colour wheel, colour harmony and the effect of the time of day on colour; and artistic considerations, such as composition, backgrounds, soft focus, special effects and ways to exhibit your images. The author moves beyond the straightforward depiction of flowers to something more abstract, drawing upon both common and more exotic flowers as inspiration.
