I have decided to join the blogging craze. I am looking forward to taking a moment to find out a little more about the plants I have been photographing. I hope to explore all aspects of plants, flowers, trees and other garden related topics. Sorry about having to watermark the photos but there are a lot of people using them without permission.

Tunnel Vision Daffodil
Tunnel Vision Daffodil

In an effort to take some slightly different Daffodil pictures this is what I came up with. The first shot is straight down the throat of a large Trumpet type of Daff. I never realized that dirt get inside there and in hindsight I probably would have cleaned out the trumpet before shooting.
This next shot was kind of an off the cuff composition and it came about since I didn’t really feel like kneeling down on the wet ground. It did ending up showing a good view of the stigma, anthers and filaments that make up the flower. I like the green shading in the very center.

Happy Easter to everyone celebrating the holiday today. The weather is going to be superb here and that is always nice. I am looking forward to seeing all the Easter and spring flowers at Today’s Flowers .

Amazing!
Happy Easter!
Those are 2 very nice compositions of the daffodil! I really like the second photo...That ruffle around the center is what makes this little flower so special...nice captures!
I'm always amazed what the camera sees and we don't!
I don't know how you can beat yesterdays but love lighting..sandy
Such an awesome angle, takes out the best in the flower! have a lovely week!
Beautiful macro shots, I prefer the second one, out of the tunnel.
Happy Easter to you and yours!
I love taking macro shots like this. And the "dirt" in the top shot is rather cool. I'm always seeing stuff in PhotoShop that I didn't know was there when I was taking the photo. All part of the process...
love that first macro, great angle!
Each one a miracle! Each detail a work of art! Wonderful macros!!
I understand about the wet knees!
Happy Easter!
I love the unusual perspective of these shots. Happy Easter to you as well!
