Perennial beauties at the Garden. I’m actually getting familiar with them, and expect to see them.
And because it is the same orchids each year, I try to do a different theme each visit. This year, I decided to just use the NIkon 105mm and take macro shots of the orchids and plants. A different challenge, as it does make you think about the composition of a shot.
It’s not wide enough to take a shot of a whole piece unless you step back a distance.
Sometimes I’m too close that I still have to step back because I wasn’t liking the macro shot. Or maybe I just didn’t have my settings right …
Either way, it was a good learning exercise in photography. Hope you enjoy the series.
A little bit of this and that ... 
Q – Love your macro studies!
Thanks! More to come. Didn’t want to overload with pictures – I tend to do that because I like all of them!
