Week 09 - Flowers, getting close with macro

Getting close-up with macro

Having enjoyed playing with my macro lens last week I thought I’d get it on the camera again and try another subject.

I discovered a stall on Guildford market – Floral Fusions – selling some lovely flowers and a really nice chap who, when I told him I wanted the flowers for photography, sorted through to get me just what I wanted.

So I had perfect specimens for this week’s panel.

I had a great time photographing them and they keep on giving. The hyacinths smell divine and I’ve really enjoyed having all the flowers in the house this week. And when they begin to fade I might try freezing them and maybe I can create a “Flowers in Ice” panel some time soon. Watch this space!
