smoke and mirrors

I was bored the other day.  So, off I went into the garden with my camera to take some flower pictures.

To make things more interesting I also took my three macro lenses with me - my Fujifilm 30mm, Laowa 65mm and my (adapted) Nikkor 105mm.

But after a while, and in spite of the lens variety, I was even more bored and needed to spice things up.  So  I went back indoors and then reappeared with an old net curtain and two light stands.

What I then did was focus my camera on some saxifrage, suspended the net curtain behind the flower using the light stands and took a shot.  I still wasn't happy so got a handful of grass and waved it right in front of the lens while taking the shot you see below.

Uploading it onto my computer I was pleasantly surprised with the results.  What do you think?
