Thanks all!

Sticki - get the sun behind you and use a fast shutter speed.

thank you!! is that how you get rid of the background too?

2 Oct, 2011

 

It is - the flowers reflect so much light, yet the background doesn't.

not normally a fuchsia person but i rather like this one, the green tips do it nicely.

no success so far, background still too clear.

I love the "pure" Fuchsia flowers SL, but I think that you're like me and find a lot of the cultivars too fussy?

Sticki - put it on Flickr and I'll take a look this evening.
