I haven't found much time to practice with my 50mm macro lens yet, so I decided to take only that one to RHS Harlow Carr this time. It is interesting trying to take scenic shots like those I showed on Sunday. It works quite well but it's a challenge remembering that I've got to walk backwards and forwards rather than zoom the lens to get the framing I'm after.
Close-ups are nice, with a lovely blur to the background, though I'm still not that good at getting the focus point exactly where I want it. It's all trial and error. I managed to find some wonderful colours though - and that is welcome as the nights draw in and the colour leaches out of the world.
Those are great. I think that's how most flower photographers operate: lots of photos and many failures along the way - thank heavens for digital photography!
ReplyDeleteYou should put these in an exhibition, they are superb.

ReplyDeletenice shots! It's good to experiment then you find out what works and what doesn't.
