Roses

When Traci returned home from being gone for a week, I welcomed her with two dozen pink roses.  It goes without saying that this needed to be documented.  I focused on macro photos.  I have said before, that I find flower photography probably most difficult.  I do enjoy shooting flowers, their beauty does catch me.
So with all three extension stacked on 70-200mm lens, all mounted on the tripod, I mulled around the bouquet of roses for about hour.  I took each composition at four different apertures to later see which depth of field suit the image best.
In the future, I would like to play more with light from the flash, though new equipment needs to be purchased to get the flash off of the body.  That’s not high on the priority list right now though.
