Toot My Own Horn

    Newer Older

    According to bokeh-master Victor this is a hibiscus. And I believe him because he shoots more flowers than anyone I know.

    To me this is what is known as the "pink flower" that grows in our front yard. Shot this on Thanksgiving because of the water on there, and I never seem to get a good water droplet shot like many of you.

    And this is SOOC, no sharpening.

      Nice job. I was thinkin pink and green today too. But mine looked more like a science project. so i didn't post it. Excellant bokeh.

      Now that ain't bad at all for SOOC. I'm impressed by the exposure....nice frame John.

      Funny you should mention names of flowers in particular, its one of those things I wish I knew more about. Oh, and did it actually rain in So.Cal?!?
