You can make REALLY high quality flower photos with a little point and shoot camera if you are careful. This is a small bloom on a big pot of chrysanthemums.
For this photo I used my tiny Panasonic Lumix point and shoot camera (see it here) - with the same care that as if I was using a big professional camera.
I did the following:
1. Waited until the flower was in full shade
2. Used a tripod to hold the camera steady
3. Set the camera on lowest ISO for best quality
4. Used self-timer to avoid any chance of camera shake
5. Carefully set the autofocus point and f-stop to get best depth of field
6. Set white balance to Shade setting (looked better than Auto White Balance)
