I hauled out my Macro lens today to take some pix of some of the pretty flowers in the vases around the house. Gerberas are just about my all time fave blooms. I love their delicacy as well the complex intricacy of their faces and they make great subjects to photograph.
In the favourite flower department, Orchids would make a happy second to Gerberas and in the few short weeks that we have been living here, thanks to a visit to a local orchid show and to Trader Joes, I have garnered three new plants, all of which are enjoying the westerly aspect of the shelf they sit on and love the sunshine that they get in the afternoon.
This is the SOOC shot of one of them, which probably mertited a bit better focus and the bother of getting the tripod out....
However, add some texture and paint....
.. and there's a whole lot of fun going on....
Here's wishing you all a sunny and happy weekend!!
