I need a flash... Smoke photography needs light to freeze motion and work with base iso. Or a strong led light source. I will try again Jack. High iso is not helping me in post processing...

Without a flash is hard to achieve good results, and high iso will make your images noisy
Exactly.
Although my camera handles noise great at high iso, it is still a problem. I use noisware pro which is by far the best software for me for noise reduction. But... The result could be a lot batter.
As I Said earlier owning a flash is something I have to do sooner or later.

Hi Natalia!Have you been in the botanic garden this weekendpanos_adgr ?
I went yesterday in the afternoon. But sun was very low and I took a few photos of little interest.

Hi Natalia!Low sun isn't bad my friend for macros ;=) , let's to show me what you got there
I always go to the botanical garden when sun is low. But it was so low that was behind the trees and I had to shoot in shade. And that's not my favourite...
I like to shoot with sun at opposite angles. If you notice my photos all of them are with sun in front of me. I move to myself in angles where I don't get flare or where something makes shadow.
Next time.
Well I use Topaz. I have the whole Topaz collection. But I find it aggressive in details whatever I do.
Noisware Pro has a learning algorithm each time you apply it. It is way beyond customisable and you can control it in any level you want. Colour, Lightness, Shadow, Mid tone, Highlights and many many many more! You can apply sharpness at the same time with incredible results. It doesn't create artefacts when suppressing noise and if it does great job in sharpening.
Topaz is not that efficient... And the worst with it is that sometimes in monochromatic parts of the picture it creates banding... With Noiseware Pro I never had any problems.
