    It seems it's always the way. I don't notice the breeze until I want to do some close up or macro work. maybe I should stick to rocks! :)

    Here are some purple trillium -

    Some very nice images everyone, keep it up!

    This cold spring hasn't allowed very many flowers to bloom in my neck of the woods yet, so I'm posting a couple from my Arizona trip last month.

    The sun came out and the magnolia bloomed.
    Something moody.

    I seem to have gotten the bug for shooting flowers. Here are some from Sunday afternoon, the GF and I went out and shot for a while. Sandy was using her new extension tube she got on Saturday.
    Armando I tried to get the black background like in your shot, came close.

    Some spring flowers in the neighborhood. Jimmy B helped me with my first macro shots. I am a newbie so any comments or suggestions are welcome.

    Here's a painted trillium past its prime. still has some haunting beauty for me though.

    great butterflies. I've never had much luck photographing them. I should try harder.
    Here's some fringed polygala, one of my favorite wildflowers -
