Harold Davis workshop

I took a weekend workshop on photographing flowers for transparency, using a Lightbox and arranging flowers on top of it. You take 7 - 10 exposures and stack them in Photoshop, edit, etc. The process is outlined in his book Creative Garden Photography: https://rockynook.com/shop/topics-and-techniques/landscape/creative-garden-photography/

sounds like hard work - you will have needed a lot of patience for all these flower shots. But they all work so well.

Junko, thank you for flagging this up. It looks very nice but I do not use photoshop or have a lightbox. I have created something just a little bit similar. Here's one I did: https://flic.kr/p/2kdg9eQ
