Description

This is a very spectacular semi-cactus type of dahlia from Jenny’s dahlia garden. I took some studio components outside and set up the basic shot. I used a light tent with a black velvet background in order to preserve the natural light, but soften the shadows. I also set the Z9 for auto stacking and took over 50 photos and stacked them with Zerene Stacker. I chose this flower for its subtle and vibrant colors and the curling of the petals created some nice, soft shadows.

Beautiful colors and details throughout, Jim. A wonderful image with surgical sharpness , I guess 50 images from the Z9 will do that. The yellows in the center are magic.
