Post your flower pics

[Jonathan]

gqtuazon's post reminded me of this one I took in the summer (can't get rid of the bold - sorry).

Which led me to this one, taken a few days before.

There always seems to be one more pink rose.

Couple of backyard shots from yesterday.
I used the Nikon 16-85 for these @ f7.1

You have a great backyard Brad!

Thanks Marilynne, I really love it here. Though it is a bit hot and humid at the moment.

Here is another shot from my backyard from yesterday.
Nikon 16-85 @ f6.3

That is a beautiful flower. I have never seen one of those.

I took this photo a few days ago, but I had a play with it tonight using the NIK tools.

Big family; this is Plectranthus neochilus, a lower growing variety that bloom on and off all year long here in Southern California. Unfortunately, like all Plectras, the leaves stink, a mix of old socks and vick's vapo-rub. I have a couple of other species, but my camera is spending the holiday's at Nikon, so pictures will have to wait.

Today was such a let down with the weather. All I managed was a couple of flower shots and these were not too good.

Lots of stiff wind probably led to them being too soft.

Nice and colorful anyway. The wind is certainly a problem for flowers and macro thats for sure. When it is windy, I normally set the camera up on the tripod and wait for a break between gusts, then click the remote.
Works sometimes
