Dried roses – these were dried by my wife long time ago (may be about 8 years ago). I remember researching for her on drying them back then.
These were real flaky and had to be handled with extreme care for picturing them. I really liked the way the pictures turned out for today’s post.
Originally I was wanting to post a macro capture of a bubble. That didn’t workout very well. I had unsuccessfully tried capturing a bubble from a GermX pump using a reverse mounted Br-2a/28mm prime combination. I didn’t like the way it turned out. So I was going through our closet and came across this box with mending supplies. Played around a bit with setup and finally got this colorful capture. Another post using my Nikkor 60mm macro lens.
Decided to start on my Photo 365 project today (wish me luck!!)
Got to start the new year with home baked cookies 🙂
Mums – Fall is here…
Took this picture during a recent visit to Butterfly House.
Picture taken with Nikon D70 and 60mm macro lens. Used bounced lighting with sb-600 flash set on a tripod (to bounce light of the ceiling) and the camera was set on a monopod.
