Impressive book that change the way I was photographing flowers.... from composition, equipment, lightning, exposure, depth of field, the color circle, backgrounds, special effects,,, you name it...she is the best...the master of flower's photograph....read it...and you will understand what I am talking about...
This is what I like most, when she wrote at the bottom of page 102...
"If you want to go beyond a record and make an image that you find aesthetically pleasing and emotionally satisfying, then anything and everything becomes possible. In focus, out of focus, a whole or a part, identifiable or not, the choice is yours."
I love it, and trust me... you will...
