Another flower picture, I know – this is boring. I bought a bunch of flowers yesterday, mainly for Jude to brighten up the house, but it also gives me some practice of taking macro pictures. It took about 50 shots on a Sunday morning to get one that I really liked. There’s a very fine line at F6.3

This is probably the best hand held picture I’ve taken so far. I used the Tamron 90mm macro lens with a very wide aperture, so the depth of field was tiny. I’m surprised I managed to get it without shaking the shot, but this was attempt no. 20 or so and it worked out nicely. The previous ones were all over the place.
It’s a rhododendron flower, for the curious.
She’s back!
This time, she’s brought a friend for tea.
Taken in my garden this evening
