The tower is a 155m high broadcasting tower, "Funkturm Arsenal": List of tallest buildings and structures in Austria - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (last pic on the Wiki page).

Still, flowers look really good even when they're getting blown around by the wind! Another interesting look would be to use burst mode with a fast enough shutter speed to freeze motion, and then in photoshop layer a few frames over each other with the overlay blending mode.

Try a slow shutter with day-light flash, match the flash GN to the ambient light so you don't blow out the details. I've got examples with flowers but they're buried in my archives, so I hope this will do.

From my first roll with the FED 3 rangefinder (which appears to have a shutter problem at it's highest speed, 1/500th because it has strong vignetting on the left of some shots.)

Thank and yes, it's real - Part of my South Wales Coast images.

I have a little audio & visual slide show located here if you're interested in taking a look.

Spring is here, and it's passing me by!!! (Wish I had more time to photograph it).

My favourite light is right after a storm, usually in the afternoon, everything looks super clear, and colours are warm and radiant. April showers/May flowers, eh?

50mm @ f/2.

Thanks for the tip ronin74, I'll try it out when the wind is blowing nice and fiercely!

Me likey! The vignette is very stylish too. I feel that you may have been able to use the various lines and contrasting patterns to produce an even more dramatic visual effect! I wonder if you could go back and try some other compositions/perspectives. Just my two cents

Even with the polarizer filter on, the colors were so ugly and bland given the overcast sky this evening, so I did the next best thing - convert it to black and white and tweak the hell out of it.

I think you succeeded, big time
