Mexican Bluebell Still Life
The Mexican Bluebell is popular in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Purple and pink flowers are everywhere I look. They also grow in white. However, the white flower is less popular in my neighbourhood. The Mexican Bluebell still life photos curated here are amongst my favourite botanical artworks.
Although the Bluebells are plentiful in my world, they’re also very delicate flowers, and sadly they bloom for only one day. Their short life means they don’t last long in the studio. For this series, I used a macro lens and opted for a shallow depth of field. The Canon 65 mm is a manual focus lens with f2.8 as its most shallow DOF f-stop. Thereby, focusing on elements of the flower, in particular the stem to bring out the details.
