Cloudy days not good for flowers

Drove up to the Tulip Festival near here. I chose today because it was supposed to be a pretty day. Boy did the weatherman screw up. Heavy Dense fog all the way up there. Fog gone now but sill heavely overcast.

It was also very chilly last night, which meant all the tulips were closed up tight.

Anyway, here's a few shots. If the sun comes out before they close up, I'll drive back out.

Nice flower shots. Good job, bud. Oh...and your idea of "chilly" is way different than our version. We still have snow on the ground!

Chilly is such a relative term My wife likes temps between 60 and 70. I like them 75 to 80. Our Thermostat gets a better workout than Arnold Schwartzenegger.

And then we have Chili which is a whole different kind of temperature.

Looks like you still got some good shots dispite the weather. The dafodil is Excellent, the 18-55 is very sharp.

I was really disappointed about the clouds this morning. After "mama" picked up the girls, I took a nap. Woke up at 3 to sunny skys so I ran back up to the Tulip Fest... Here are a couple of shots. Iso was at 200 Some were using the 18-55 but also experimented with the 105 (not good with that one yet). Anyway, here's a couple of shots, and more in my gallery. No PP done on any of them other than changing resolution. If any of you want to do any Post Processing on them, let me know which one and I'll send you the higher resolution version.

Lets hope we don't have another end of April heavy snow. You think the tulips pucker up down South!

I'd say you're doing well with the 105, the single tupil looks like it's floating, nice.
