This bouquet close-up highlights three ceramic honeybees.
They are not intended to look real, instead they are to show off the flowers.
I took this using 3X zoom - 2ft away, f4, 1/150 shutter and flash. |
Beautiful trumpet flowers are great for catching photos
of hummingbirds. Only problem, it was way to late in the day to capture the
birds. 1X zoom, f4.0 1/125 shutter. |
The berries on this tree were subtle and needed to
be shot. It was tough getting a balanced focus and proper lighting without
flash, but I enjoyed the challenge. f2.8 1/60 shutter. |
Photography is smoke and mirrors sometimes. Here
I placed this flower in our mailbox and made the effort to tease the viewer
with some background. 1X f2.8 1/125 shutter.

and many people ask for more Fluffy photos. A white cat and flash make for
fun photography. 1X zoom f6 1/125 shutter, flash. |

photos yet, but I made a good effort to give you a selection. I love the wing
detail here. 3X f4 1/250 shutter. |

This was interesting to me, because it was ordinary, but the fence gives it
freedom. 1X f4.0 1/500 shutter. |
Here is a pumpkin flower from the only pumpkin plant
we have at the building where I work. It dosen't seem as if we'll get any
pumpkins though, we barely get flowers. 1X f4 1/250 shutter. |
AHere is a great collection of flowers to brighten
up your desktop. I took this photo with a long shutter time, to enrich the
colors and avoid using a flash. 1X f5.6 1.5 sec. shutter. |
Mom's peachpie was cooling on the back porch and it
looked great. I couldn't see diving into this wonderful treat without first
capturing it for all to see.. 2X f2.8 1/250 shutter - flash. |
The last of the bouquet photos. I try here to give
the impression that the camera is climbing over the flowers and following
the honeybee. 3X f8 1/60 shutter. |
