When your wife brings flowers home ...
As you might remeber the wife graduated last month , and she got this nice planting container from her work with Cyclamen and Heath .
And since we had shitty weather outside cold wind and rain i decided to take a closer look at the planting container with my camera and lenses .
The camera used is : Sony A7IV
I've used three different lenses :
Sony 24-105mm F4 G OSS
Helios 44 58mm F2
Laowa 25mm Ultra Macro 2.5-5x magnification
1 ) The planting container with card from her co workers translation " That deserves a Flower "
2 ) The cyclamen very small flowers , normaly they are a lot bigger but i do like these smaller variety .
3 )Flowering heath , flowers are still closed might need more sunlight
4 ) pink decorations in the planting container and some sort of grass growing beside it .
5 )playing with the helios lens for soft bokeh
6 )One single heath flower bud , picking out one tiny flower and getting it in focus at 5x magnification was a little bit harder then i expected .
7 ) A cyclamen leaf at 5x magnification f8, you really need to use a tripod and remote trigger at 5x magnification to get a sharp image any tiny vibrations would make the photo out of focus . I use my mobile phone as a remote trigger with the incamera build application.
7 b ) The distance between the leaf and the lens +/- 4 cm this is the same distance i used when i took the photo of that Asian Ladybug some days ago . image taken with mobile phone ;)
8 )Do you remember those pink decorations balls in the planting container ?
this is what they look like at 5x magnification .
9 )Trying to look inside the cyclamen flower with 5 x magnification
9 a ) Using a lot of extra light to be able to get a decent photo , with the F8 and 5x magnification you simply need that amount of light .
As you might have guessed the last 4 macro magnification photos were created with the Laowa 25mm ultra macro lens .
Well that is all for today holidays are comming , here in Holland we start with Sinter Klaas / St Nicholas mostly for kids up to age 10 and then we move on to Christmas celebrations and New year .
Let me know in the comment if your country also celebrates St Nicholas.

Thank you Ekavieka
Indeed those flowers ended up being a world of photographic abundance!
they sure are
Beautiful photos! It's amazing how magnification creates a completely other view of flowers... How it's used to say... TO look outside, you should look inside?
As we talked before, we do celebrate Mikulas... 😃
Thank you , i'm always amazed by the cel structure on things that we don't see with the naked eye .
Yes from you i know that you celebrate Mikulas ,
Oh, you're really a good photographer I'm not going to deny it, it looks beautiful especially the pink decoration. Wonderful!👏👏
Thank you , i do my best to not make the camera look stupid . 😜

Well this is that photography post that I needed this morning 😂😂✨❤️
Loved the difference views of pink
Thank you Seki , i'm glad you liked it
I love cyclamen flowers. In Argentina, we call them Alpine violets, and their various colours brighten up gardens in winter. I especially love that colour. The floral arrangement itself is spectacular, and congratulations again to your wife.
I especially loved the close-ups of the bud and the leaf, although the decorative pink balls in the close-up surprised me in terms of their texture. They are great photographs; it is always good to experiment and practise with everything around us. Have a great Sunday and a big hug!

It's true, and it's also like entering a fantasy world, seeing everything up close. Thank you very much!
