You should be able to take a good photo with any camera whether a £50k Hasselblad or an i-phone and in the same way whether it’s in a studio, bedroom or outside in your garden.
I include a few set up examples using my home grown gourds and tomatoes.
It may look a bit precarious but it shows you don’t need a fancy set up, just the idea and the creativity and patience to make it work. It may look a bit mad & wacky but photography is very simple.
I love my camera bag from Florence with a pug with pink bows.

Shooting wide open, hand held at 1/40th. I probably took 60 images per vegetable, with variations with slightly different focus, levels and cropping, then quite a bit of post production on the Mac.
I love taking pictures when it’s a good idea, just like a kid in a sweet shop. I could easily spend a week on a shot if I knew i could make it better and better.
