HOW TO OBTAIN BEST RESULTS BY REMOVING AN ULTRA-WIDE ANGLE LENS
Today, most consumer DSLR lens kits are wide-angle. The 18 mm lens on the APS-C sensor camera (or 27 mm on the old 35 mm) is wide enough for most cases. Ultra-wide-angle lenses are characterized in that their focal length is less than 16 mm. It is here that new creative possibilities and new obstacles open up.
On crop sensor lenses, a focal length of 30-35 mm provides what we call the “normal” field of view, which is roughly equivalent to what the human eye sees. At 18 mm the field of view is almost two times wider, so it is possible to place many objects in the frame.

STEVEN MAYZEL IN FASHION PHOTOS AND SHE IN IT

First of all, because the flowers have a texture and they have a bright color, which means that it is very likely to get a “beautiful photo”. But in order for the flower to look interesting in the picture, you still need to adhere to some rules that have been tested for years, despite the fact that beginners unsuccessfully try to violate them and professionals are almost undecided in compliance with them.
Use lenses with a focal length of 50 mm or more. Telephoto lenses are good.
Highlight flowers from below or from the side with the sun or flash. This way you increase the transparency of the petals. Continue reading
