    Fantastiskt Tommy. Det är otroligt vackert med ljusblå bakgrunder sådär. Gör att blommorna verkligen lyster.

    Translation: Good work...

    Thanks all!

    I think a clear sky is one of the best backgrounds there is.

    "I think a clear sky is one of the best backgrounds there is."

    And sunlight is the best lighting - for me anyway. I have trouble getting true colors in artifical light.

    I think it's hard to use the sunlight. The colours get wrong or some strange shadow apear. Fun that it differs so!
    I usually take photos indoors with a shaded artificial light.

    Frequently the only time I have to photograph is at night, so daylight doesn't suit me.

    I especially like the Renantera citrina, thanks.
