An iris' story

Description

I used a tokina 100mm f/2.8 - AT-X M100 PRO D macro lens at f/4.5 to blur the background, and a 1/100 shutter speed using the Nikon D70s. I also set the on-camera flash to a -ev of -2.0 to illuminate/fill the shadows of the flower setting it apart from the light background.
