I’d love to know your aperture…I can’t decide if I should be shooting wide open or not. I’m going to look now for a macro to enter.

Wonderful shot. These are Bob’s favorite flowers, and they really don’t grow here, bummer.

Such a beautiful two tone color. Great photos.

Fantastic study of a macro tulip. Love the colors!
Jama said,
The tulips are so pretty, Lisa. I can still find fresh tulips here in the florists, they are imported from Holland. Due to our hot climate, the tulips can’t be grown here unless in a glasshouse environment.

I didn’t expect to see tulips at this time of year Lisa. The combination of colours is so rich looking. Orangey coloured ones are favourties of mine.

Lovely, as always. The first photo is my favorite. The third one has a fierce look to it.

Shallow depth of field in macro photographs has the potential to produce stunning results – as you have done in these pictures. thank you for sharing them with us. And what happened to “missing”? When I click on that post, it’s really MISSING!
And I would paint it a deep candy apple red – the white racing stripe would be the perfect adjunct.
naquillity said,
such beautiful pictures. close ups bring a refreshing new perspective to the forefront. as for the missing post… i couldn’t comment because the link says it’s not there. hope you start feeling less out of sorts as the day passes. hope all is well.
