It would be impossible to take a picture of them just trying to lie on the ground and it&#8217;s less dirty than that. Use places with a wide open area so you wont be standing in any shadow and get good lighting. To catch the blue sky you either use a fast shutter time or small aperture. Also the small aperture will cause the background to blur more. So choose a correct aperture so you only blur the background and not the flower and use a shutter time that make you have the correct lighting time.<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/b2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.chungdha.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/b2-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5191079728486940162\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a>Try various position  instead of trying to get one side , cause I never though the backside of this flower would look that good  giving the feeling it is looking at the sky.
