(1/10 sec @ f/13; ISO 640; +2/3 EV; Sunny WB; FEC -1) Another image from my Tuesday evening foray. I would often see these grassy looking plants around and never knew what they were until I finally got curious enough to dig through my field guides. They add a nice touch of late summer/early autumn color [...] (1/15 sec @ f/20; ISO 800; 0 EV; FEC -1) I know I should be able to identify this tiny wildflower but I have gone through all four wildflower guide books that I have and I can’t pinpoint an id. The shape and color alone should give it away. I hate when that happens. Anybody out [...]
(1/125 sec @ f/8; ISO 640; 0 EV; Focal length 155mm; natural light) My wife and I went for a walk this morning in our favorite local state park – Jacobsburg. She sought out birds (spotting a Cerulean Warbler and Indigo Bunting among others) while I looked for wildflowers to photograph. I ended up focusing my [...] (1/15 sec @ f/16; ISO 800; +2/3 EV; Natural light) We get both Philadelphia (or Common) Fleabane and Daisy Fleabane around here in quite large quantities. These almost daisy-like flowers started blooming a couple of weeks ago and will continue to bloom throughout the summer months. This particular flower is not as pink as some of [...] (1/160 sec @ f/4.5; ISO 800; 0 EV; FEC -1) Before I get too far from the weekend past, I want to post one more flower image from our visit to Bowman’s Hill Wildflower Preserve in New Hope, Pa. I thought this might be the highlight of the day, then I came across the Yellow Lady’s [...] By any other name would smell as sweet.” (Shakespeare, “Romeo and Juliet“) From the same session as my rose image of two days ago (see This Bud’s for You). The image was made using exactly the same set-up mentioned there. The only difference, other than being a different rose, is that I opened up the aperture [...] Some folks can’t help but pick up a six-pack when they go grocery shopping. I, on the other hand, tend to wander into the flower cooler rather than the beer cooler and look for candidates to photograph. I really appreciate the fact that they let me look around in there myself so I can pick [...] I am chafing at the bit to get out and find something to photograph that is not brown or gray. At this point in time, I’m not sure what or where but I have to come up with a plan for the weekend before Saturday rolls around. Yes, I am going crazy! There’s not much [...] A pale pink rose symbolized grace and gentleness and that is what I tried to capture in this image. This is another in my series of close-up/macro rose images (see “Enchantment”, “Innocence”, “Desire” and “Passion” earlier in this blog). I studied the flower searching for a composition that would capture the grace and gentleness of this [...] In my previous post (“Patterns”) I said that I am now much more likely to photographically decompose the subject and focus in on specific elements of a flower rather than the flower itself. While this is true, it doesn’t mean that I have totally abandoned flower portraits. I still work a few into almost every [...] |
