DSC01856 copy

I had a hard time deciding which photo to post today. I’ve been taking a lot of photos of the flowers in my garden and many of the photos are quite lovely.

I decided to post this delicate pink tulip. It was nearing the end of it’s lifespan when I took this photo but it’s floppy petals just looked so attractive that I ended up taking about 20 different photos at various angles.

Do you ever do that when you are photographing something? Take 10 or 20+ photos just to be sure you’ve taken the best photo possible?

As always Tricia– your garden is so beautiful

We will just be planting our annuals this weekend. We’ll get color into our yard one way or another!

I do the same thing - picture after picture of the same thing and then I end up deleting them and keeping just the one! Thank goodness for digital photography!

When I find a scope like you have, I always takes a lot - that’s the advantage of having a digital camera you know. You never know which one would come out the best and I’m glad you did too as this one is just perfect. Great macro picture Tricia!
