That's probably okay for light wind, but where I was yesterday there was quite a gust blowing. Even though the flower and camera were enclosed in a small tent, the flapping of the side of the tent set up vibrations that ruined the pictures.

Plan B is to wait for the wind to drop. And to look skywards with an imploring look. :D

I can remember waiting up to an hour on occasions for the wind to drop, just so that I could get one chance at a shot I'd maybe planned for ages!

Well as suggested by Sharon I used a diffuser as a wind screen, and waited for calm spells, and it seems to do the trick. I can't say it's too arduous, sitting on the side of a hill, listening to Skylarks and Lapwings. I think I need to improve the backgrounds though.
