Alstromeria

With daylight and a lightbox I took the cut off flower of an Alstromeria. With the lens I’m able to approach the bloom on approximately 20 cm. The blossom then fills almost the entire sensory. The ratio of the mapping is thus approximately 1:1. 

The quality of the RAW images is convincing in itself. The creation of the finished HDR takes place in a combination of manual and automated steps.

RAW conversion is done using CaptureOne, HDR processing is done manually in Photoshop. Further, I generated two automated HDR developments using HDR Efex Pro 2 and Photomatix Pro 6 and layered them in. Some of the original color is transferred from the daylight image with the lightbox switched off.

I like to make things visible the naked eye isn't able to see. That's part of my profession as a radiologist, too.
