Flowers can be a wonderful opportunity for photographers to practice their camera skills. Whether receiving a bunch as a gift, or wanting to record the flowers in your own garden, there are a few things you can do to improve your flowery shots.When I first got into photography I found photographing flowers was a great way of honing my knowledge of the camera. They're beautiful stationary subjects, so it's easy to set up your camera and experiment with different apertures, shutter speeds, and ISO values to see what each setting does. By working with these settings it can quickly boost your confidence to move from auto mode, to manual.I'd wanted to photograph a wild Bee Orchid here in the U.K. for quite some time, so when I heard of one growing in my friends garden, I grabbed my kit and hastily ran over. At this point I didn't have a macro lens, nor any plant-specific accessories like a Wimberley Plamp used for holding the orchid still, so I decided to write a short tutorial on how to get the best flower photos with your regular kit.Hold the Camera SteadyI used a tripod (a Gitzo Traveler) to keep my Nikon D750 steady whilst I shot. The benefit of using a tripod is that I could recompose my shot with relative ease, and fine-tune my composition carefully. Shooting handheld is still an option with flower photos, but it's more difficult to get into position and make small adjustments accurately between shots.
