Open Wide!

As beautiful as wildflowers may be, their backgrounds are typically very distracting. Using a very large aperture can make backgrounds into big blobs of color such as with this tiny Fleabane. It can even make hot spots somewhat pleasing. So next time you capture a flower, open wide! (Canon 70-200 (f/4 non IS) Left image at f/13. Right at f/4)

Green

A little something different from the Flagstaff Arboretum this time. All captured with Canon 70-200mm lens and a 25mm extension tube. Hand held but only because I forgot my camera bracket!
