Roses are always a wonderful gift for me and so I was very excited when this bunch was donated. Now it has been standing for over 4 weeks and I wanted to capture it in a photo, because rarely have I seen a bunch of roses stay good for so long. She comes from a specialist grower and it really shows. The pastel colours are very nice and the roses have opened up very nicely.
The photo was taken with the Canon EOS R with telephoto lens of 100-400 mm and the settings are: f/8, 1/6 sec, ISO-800 and 150 mm. The photo is 0.7-stop underexposed.
While the flowers are on the windowsill, I placed a black screen behind them, to avoid "false" light. This also makes them stand nicely free in the space of the photo.
I think this photo could come into its own in any interior, as there is a great calmness to the image.
