Thanks Jakov. With the K2 ring only you can have sufficient distance for portraits.   The Df loves the Heligon  ;)

It has been a long since I have "heligoned" a flower :)
The only difference is I have used the D750 and not the Df.

It helps when a blue car is parked just below :)

Very striking photos!  In the second one I like the intensity of the colors, and their separation from one another.  But I like the first even better - it captures the essence of the flowers with what seems like a few strokes of a painter's brush.

Cheers - John

John and Jack, thank you so much for your kind words.
It is the Heligon that got me into "painting photography" where sharpness and resolution, among other things, have no play.
I am really glad that you like the images that the Heligon produces.

John, heligon magic works with Fuji too!

  Jakov, your use of background is very interesting and works beautifully.
