Assign. #20 Flowers

[Nikon Fan]

Sorry it's a day late, was out of town for Labor Day w/o internet access...sorry for the lame topic as well...just couldn't think of anything better, but this one should be easy, so let's see lots of shots posted folks :) Remember new pics if you can, and feel free to post pics after even though a new assignment will be posted next monday. Post as many shots as you'd like and get out there and shoot :)

Not sure if these really apply to the theme, (Even though I probably have enough flower photos to drive people crazy), but these are my newest additions as I was borrowing a lens and a macro flash, (Talk about fun), these were the only 'flowers' nearby, and seeing as there probably wont' be a 'weeds and thistles' thread. Why not here :D

Enjoy

These can all be viewed larger at http://www.flickr.com/photos/britstaddon/sets/901433/ , I haven't gotten my hands on the RAW yet (Actually, borrowed EVERYTHING. I should have simply moved my card to that persons camera. Next time)

(I also don't have a fast lens, so borrowing this one was a treat. Shallow DOF.. my fave)

Not many more flowers outside to be found, so I treated myself to two bunches of flowers (my favourite, whose name I still don't know... duh!, and roses, which I can fortunately tell from other flowers ;)) ... and then I experimented with them this way and that...

These aren't so new, but I don't have the ones I took most recently on my computer yet. They're a bit more exotic than the ones I have in my garden as well :)

Hope you like...

Not to discourage everyone from posting here, but please try and post new shots...that is the point of assignments-to get out and shoot new photography, and try things you haven't tried before. If you have old ones that fit the theme, most likely there is a thread already started in the main themes forum...if not, you can start one! I am positive there is one for plants/flowers though! :)

Thank you! :)

Here is the themes thread for flowers:

Snapped this one about 5 minutes ago....

Still waiting for her to open up and show us her beauty!

[EVPohovich]

The wife says they look like a type of freesia. I would share the cookie with her.

[EVPohovich]

Google for Freesia (http://images.google.com/images?q=freesia&hl=en&lr=&c2coff=1&safe=off&client=safari&rls=en&sa=N&tab=wi)

I had to look that up ;) , but no not freesia. You can have a cookie mini for trying though :D

[doenoe]

its a cucumber plant, isnt it

[EVPohovich]

Nope. Cukes have larger blossoms, but you are getting warmer.

another cookie mini.....

I'm trying again - these were taken on Sunday morning in my garden. It was sunny and not a breath of wind, and not all of the flowers have finished for the summer.


1. Chocolate cosmos

2. Lavender

4. Geranium

There are some beautiful flowers in this thread - aside from my dog, I probably take more flowers than anything else because the ones in my garden keep changing through the year and it's so easy to nip out the back door and take a few. Hope you like them :blushing:

[Corry]

Awesome shots everyone! I love 'withered' and puzzle, you got some awesome detail in the first one! Nice job!

Whoot! Almost permenantly boring a 100mm macro! I decided not to bore people with flower shots in a seperate thread so I will put them in here isntead. :lol:. Alot of these I photoshopped to 'look different'. If that makes sense.
