Default Echinacea photo

Thought I'd post a flower photo, not an orchid, that I think turned out fairly well. It was taken last summer at the Devonian Botanic Gardens near Edmonton (we have a son-in-law, daughter, and granddaughter up there). The camera was hand-held and the photo taken with my Tamron 90mm 2.8 macro. Since it was a dull day, I upped the ISO to 800 and shot the photo at 1/800 since there was a light breeze blowing. I used an aperture of 11 to get more depth of field and shot fairly close to the flower to get better background blur (bokeh).

Love it! I added you as a contact in Flickr. Not really sure what that means, I am new to Flickr.

Thanks for looking Amanda and I'll add you as a contact, too. All that means is that the new photos of your contacts show up when you click on "contacts."

Not a problem Ron. BTW, I added you as a contact as well on Flickr. I'm surprised that I hadn't done that before.
