One more...:P

I was going to post this tomorrow as today is Sunday, my lowest traffic day, but I wanted to keep all the flower macros together as this is the last one for a while. The high's have been upwards of 111° (F) for the past several days so I haven't been out shooting much. As soon as it cools of 5 or 10 degrees you'll hopefully see some more interesting pictures. You may notice that I've updated the exif data to include the exposure mode (P, Av, Tv, etc). Apparently my server is on pacific time, but it is set 1 hour ahead, so until they fix it, the next day's photo may appear as early as midnight, mountain time.

One thing about flower macros...they make good wallpaper ;).

These fresh flowers are really refreshing. Just looking at such pictures reminds me that for how long I havn't been to any garden. Living al the time in my room amidst a concrete jungle. Or even I happen to see some flowers I just overlook them.

Your photos are really nice.

I'm a huge fan of macros, considering I take mostly macros myself.

This one is beautiful, I like your choice in DOF, the colors and lighting are great. The Rule of thirds is applied perfectly.

Leo hit it on the nail...very nice, Ryan. So you can find flowers in the desert this time of year, eh? ;-)
