Aram,
The red roses with droplets are stunning; nicely done. Looks like the
100mm was in macro mode and wide open. It is a wonderful lens and I
treasure mine.
I never thought of framing a Bird of Paradise (your San Diego Wildlife
Park-0150.jpg) so closely; very nice, especially because of the
background.
I've had perpetual problems photographing the whole blooms (Birds of
Paradise) because I couldn't
arrange a suitable background no matter what I did, lying on my back,
kneeling, etc.
They seem to be grown around here against unsightly backgrounds,
though I know that's
my problem, not theirs.
Glad you got through the mountain passes and had a nice visit.
All the best,
Bill
