    Default Flowers in the backyard

    What do you think of this photo? I have a good macro lens, so here is my attempt at flower photography.

    White Daisies.

    Gorgeeous. I love the drops of water and the settings for short depth of field.

    Wow, excellent! The effects are eye-popping.
    Water drops make a nice difference.

    Your composition and framing is great. The light is a little flat.

    Somebody I know has been having a lot of fun with his camera lately ~
    Another interesting composition is to use that short depth of field and focus on an individual flower in the further in, using some in the foreground as a blurry frame
    Have fun and keep posting. And if there's a beach nearby and you have a special bikini lens ~~~~

    Here are a few I took with my old, rather cheap camera a few years ago.



    The flash washed out the color a bit here...


    Water drop.

    Cool mon!

    I'll get a nice water drop happening - my lens is wicked for such tasks.

    Wow, guys.. those are great shots!! Do you have the full size posted anywhere? They'd make great computer-desktop wallpaper.

    Nice pictures. I've also taken some pictures of flowers but I'm still using a digital camera and the result is pretty good. Next time I will post the samples.
