Tuesday, March 2, 2010. Originally uploaded by ttsweet. Here's an image made with only window light. No software, no adjustments, filters, nor reflector disk. Just soft, warm natural light with good subject placement to get modeling light with no dark areas. This image appeared on the 2007 Nikon calendar. March 2, 2010 at 3:16 PM.

http://tonysweetphotography.blogspot.com/2010/03/dsc6616.html
Saturday, March 13, 2010. I got a hold of a great texture overlaying plugin called, ironically, Dirty Pictures by Totally Rad Software, recommended by John Barclay. Click on the sidebar icon to either download a free trial or to purchase this plugin and/or others! Cool idea and a beautiful shot, thanks Tony. March 13, 2010 at 7:38 PM.

Tony Sweet Flower Photography blog: Helicon tulip
http://tonysweetphotography.blogspot.com/2010/02/helicon-tulip.html
Sunday, February 28, 2010. Originally uploaded by ttsweet. After adding a few more spreads to my book (no title, yet), there wasn't enough time to get out to catch a sunset, so after buying some fresh tulips at the market, had a little time to make this image using Helicon focus (10 images), Nik's Viveza, and Nik Color efex Pro Vignette blur filter. March 5, 2010 at 5:03 PM. I thought of using canned air to blow off the pollen but it would probibly hurt the flower. April 13, 2010 at 11:58 AM. We'll be ta...

Tony Sweet Flower Photography blog: Light on White
http://tonysweetphotography.blogspot.com/2010/03/light-on-white.html
Tuesday, March 2, 2010. I've always been reluctant to use flash on flowers, especially white flowers. But, with the advent of Nikon's R1C1 macro studio "Creative Lighting System (CLS), I was amazed at how well it worked here. With the lower power flashes and the ability to dial back the power, hand held macro flash photography gives the photographer the ability to work in areas where "no tripod has gone before.".

Tony Sweet Flower Photography blog: Himalayan blue poppy
http://tonysweetphotography.blogspot.com/2010/03/himalayan-blue-poppy.html
Sunday, March 14, 2010. Still having fun with Totally Rad's Dirty Pictures texture plugin. I thought that this mid eastern wall pattern would work well over the Himalayan blue poppy, kind of giving it a sense of place. The depth in this was created by painting out the texture from the orange center. Back to Longwood Gardens in the morning! Are you able to use your own textures with the Totally Rad Dirty Pictures software or are you limited to just the ones that they have that ship with the software?

Tony Sweet Flower Photography blog: LWG flowers/texture overlay
http://tonysweetphotography.blogspot.com/2010/03/lwg-flowerstexture-overlay.html
Sunday, March 14, 2010. Just messing around with Totally Rad's Dirty Picture texture series one more time before getting to work. On this image, I thought it looked a bit better to leave the texture affecting the entire image rather than painting the effect out of the flowers, as in the previous entry. The graphic texture and dramatic foreground/background color contrast adds a sense of 3 dimensionality. March 14, 2010 at 4:12 PM. March 15, 2010 at 5:56 PM. April 12, 2010 at 11:27 PM.
