It's only about 4-5 km depending on the route, so we can do it in about 10 minutes. I ride with her there, come home, and go back to get her.
I still have a little time to putter between trips, and yesterday, having noticed a patch of wildflowers on the first trip, I had enough time to go back with the car and camera to grab a few quick photos.
Once again, I was shooting handheld, so I didn't worry much about getting tack-sharp images. Sometimes, I do make an effort to really shoot sharp, but there is also something to be said for soft focus images.
I also did a few ICM images and will likely post them tomorrow.
the really close in macros are stunning!
ReplyDeleteThat last one is spectacular!
ReplyDeleteThey look almost monster like with sharp spears.
ReplyDeleteI will see what they turn into when I wave my magic wand over them.
Soft focus or not very beautiful images....
ReplyDeleteWild flowers are fun. We have the blue bonnets here in Fredericksburg in the Spring. They are actually an annual, but the seeds fall into the ground and grow back in the spring, usually in abundance.
ReplyDeleteThese are all beautiful! I only shoot hand held being too impatient to set up a tripod.
ReplyDeleteOh those are nice, I like the differential focus. There is a lot to be said for a regular bike ride, even if it is short. I'm so desperate to get back on my bike again, hoping my ankle recovers soon.
ReplyDeleteIt's funny. I lack the patience for the close ups!!! You are doing good work, well, play!
ReplyDeleteAnd what wonderfully wild flowers you have shown us today, John. I especially liked the final shot in this grouping.
