I found a heart in the center of this bloom while I was searching for the light.

Love this shot of my man posing with his beard

Took this because it looked like it had been enhanced without any editing. From where I was standing I could see a complete circle rainbow.

These pretty little ones came up today - we didn't plant them but they come back each year, even if it is only for a few days.

I am sure that it was only about 5 minutes that I was taking pictures of this little sleeping fawn, still couldn't believe that it slept through

Was at Moss Greenhouses with the camera club to practice on my macro skills, this one just made me smile so I had to keep it ... in a photo

One of the last photos I took at the City of Rocks in Idaho. I was able to attend a photo safari and the sun didn't show up much but when it did

This is one of my favorite images of my hubby from a workshop that we were involved in. I love it so much that I may have re-edited to make it better

Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in my front yard, Idaho USA. I was trying to master macro and blur

Time

I had to take this image in the late afternoon early evening in order for the bloom to be open. Then I had to rush so the sun wasn't too far gone before I could capture the light.

Lighting

I try to use the natural light, I don't like what a flash does especially when so close.

Equipment

this was shot with a Canon SL1, Sigma 18-250

Inspiration

I love the way these little onions come back each year even though they were not "planted". The purple is one of my favorite colors too.

Editing

This was before I knew much about post-processing so just a little density in Lightroom.

In my camera bag

My bag changes all the time! The only normally is a Canon camera! I have upgraded to the 90D since this image was taken.

Feedback

Use a tripod to do macro and avoid the wind
