Description

These flowers were so strange. Their texture was very similar to thin paper, so they are ever so slightly translucent at the bottom. They also live longer than any flower I've ever had; this is yet another shot from my anniversary, which was on 6/21/06 and the flowers are still alive. I hope everyone has a good weekend! Down here in Florida, its so hot outside, I think we're going to hole up in the air conditioning (its 91 degrees and not even noon yet!)

Thank you both for the wonderfully encouraging comments :D Joe...oh, I misunderstood in your message to me. In any case, your work is stunning, and its God's Art, anyway :) I saw your portraits, they're stunning. I'd like to get into portrait work someday. And yes, the 20D is an awesome camera. I can't wait till I have the resources to buy more lenses (the 70-300mm telephoto image stabilizing zoon is on the top of my list). I'd like to have a fish eye lens someday, too :D

How the heck did you do that? Looks like the most shallow depth ever, lol. The 20D sure seems to be a great camera, and that lens you want also sounds like a great one. I have a 70-300...unfortunatly without stabilizing zoom, but it still works okay. And thats the cheap Sigma by the way. Bla bla. Have a great rest of your weekend!!!! #:O)

It was a yoga moment. I leaned very far over the flower, trying very hard not to get my own shadow in the way, and took the shot. I was zoomed in as far as the lens would let me and still be focused. I think the 20D was the best purchase I have ever made. I compared to Nikon, and it really seems like cannon was the better camera. Before the 20D I had a fuji cool pix, which was decent, but more of a point and shoot than anything. I can't wait for that lens!!! It keeps coming down in price, too. So hopefully in a few months. I've gone to the beach so many times, and missed opportunities for really good shots because my 55mm just doesn't have the range I need. Ty ty for the comments, guys. The more I do this, the more I realize how much I really love it. Wish I had realized this years ago!
