Gerbera Daisies

Gerbera Daisies

This image, which is digital, shows once again the value of accompanying vintage film photography with digital capability.  On a visit to a local nursery, I was occupied by shopping, but had time to snap this image with my Canon A610 point-and-shoot camera, which has some manual control in addition to the usual automatic modes.  The small CCD chip allows greater depth of field than is possible with film.  I would not have had time to compose the image with my vintage cameras, and would not have been able to achieve this depth of field in a hand-held shot.
