I *Heart* Macro

I finally got to play with some of my new lens adapters.  I shot a few pics of the flowers in front of my Mom's house. The first one is a Gardenia.  I love Gardenias! They have such a pure look and they have the most wonderful, completely indescribable scent.  (not to mention uncopieable scent (is that a word? it is now!) because lotions don't come close!)  I took a shot and then played around with various "adjustments" to it.
over at Lori's Studio



Pure Beauty

Soft as It's Scent

Gardenia Blues

Sugared Surprise

Olde Tyme Gardenia

Mom's front yard... anyone know what this is?

Same thing, only different... don't know it's purple name, either

Although this one's easy... ROSE!

Geranium
I played with my Supermacro lens, my x10 and my 2x lens.  I have plans to keep playing.  Now, if you want to see what else I did to that Gardenia, feel free to pop over to my FB page and look. I'm thinking of adding selling photography along with selling my jewelry.... but that's still open for discussion (the voices in my head haven't agreed, yet)

    Love how the rose is just barely off centre. Makes all the difference.
