I liked the one after the blue, like a Burnt ochre colour, lovelyOf course one of the secrets to getting a good image in macro photography is getting the lens (or crops) where you want them to make the viewer look in the right place - and it's also important to have a background that doesn't ruin the image but hopefully enhances it.
So in the short 7 image series, I have tried to show what I mean. (just to add, I handheld the camera and swapped the background between shots).
The first photo is the dandelion clock taken (in the studio if you will, i.e. it's in the kitchen) placed close to a nondescript background, in this instance, the tiled wall behind the cooker.
Once there, it was time to find a part of the seed head and concentrate on that to try and get a pleasing result. But the background doesn't really do much for the photo, so I introduced one of six different printed backgrounds to try and get a more aesthetic final image - the results of which are below.
So the first image looked very "ordinary" which is when I went for the options, posted below.
Enjoy, and feel free to choose your preferred photo.

Great taste
Yeah that's my favourite too, although frankly @Bilbo I would be more than happy if I could take a picture like the original. lol
That’s what I’m trying to do at the moment, thanks for noticing!
Burnt Ochre? Get on you. lol
Like the others I like the third one, and the last, but tbh I think the original is pretty good. Defo the darker colours look best to me with that subject.Of course one of the secrets to getting a good image in macro photography is getting the lens (or crops) where you want them to make the viewer look in the right place - and it's also important to have a background that doesn't ruin the image but hopefully enhances it.

Haha, the image is so large at some points as I'm scrolling down it just looks like I'm zooming in!
It’s good film! Perfect for blue skys and holidays in hot countries. Not that we’re really in the position for either right now lol
I’ve got a bonafide 35mm scanner by Plustek or somebody. Obviously can’t do medium format so I’m going to have to invest in a flatbed scanner too
