I spent a while playing with a bunch of flowers that I’d bought Judy. The pink Gerbera was striking, so I spent some time trying to capture that with my Tamron 90mm macro lens. The sun was streaming in the window, so there’s a few blown highlights on the waterdrops, but I’m pretty happy with it.

My favourite part of the day – going home. This is the Swansea train getting ready to leave Paddington Station.
the road less travelled, originally uploaded by Pete Connolly.
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveller, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I–
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference

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
