Wild Strawberry Patch - Re-post

[Dick_Knudson]

The pano re-post is the result of Patricia Brundage’s suggestion.

The prospect of this patch yielding strawberries well into late summer is something I anticipate greatly. But sooo many blossoms this year begged for some photos. I liked the spiral arrangement of this bunch.

Specific Feedback Requested

Does the blossom on the top center edge stay or go? Gets pretty spacy up there without it, but maybe OK.

Technical Details

Is this a composite: Yes
Focus stack of three images, using Helicon Focus for stacking

1/500 sec. f/4.5 100mm

To emphasize the flowers and their placement in the scene, I might try a pano crop from the top and bottom which removes the sections with just the leaves. Just a thought.

Patricia, I very much like the result of following your suggestion.
