The ones that I nicked from the town gardens. The next time I post pics will be with my new lens. Yes, after twisting my husband’s arm (which is very difficult to do long distance) I went and bought a 50mm f/1.8. Not as expensive as the 1.2 USM but also not as good. Either way I love that I don’t have to work half as hard to capture the depth of field I so love. Here are the hygrangeas I captured using my old lens:
For more flower love see Kim Carney’s In A Garden collection and In A Vase collection. I’m so inspired by this lady. Another inspiration is Jenny. She’s the queen of all things beautiful. Right now Jenny has a free giveaway. Leave a comment about what you love about being a woman and you could win a coronation necklace she designed.
