Flora

Anyone like to shoot plant pics?



Taken on a very bright summer day.



I don't know what it is? They came up in our woods.

Wow, beautiful. My pictures of plants never looked that good. I haven't taken pictures in a couple years. Too many surgeries. But I did get ome good shots of ice!

If you care to share I'd love to see them? It doesn't ice or snow here, so I never get to see it.

gonzo, that's a nice, bright flower, well done. I enjoy flower pics myself so I'll share a couple too.




This is sort of a flower, not sure the real name of it but it looked cool so I snapped some shots of it while I was in SF.

Beautiful glass!

These were from last summer, with my little Canon point and shoot.


This year will be better.


Plants make me hungry






Hard to tell, but this is huge for a tomato flower. I was showing someone how these looked. I grew an old heirloom variety for the first time this summer.







Columbine...this year, I have a macro!

I can't get over the clarity on your rose. It's in another class.

Thanks, it was taken using my 50mm, my favorite walk around lense. I attached my exif settings if you are interested.
