Nataive. Taken in my garden. Applied watercolor filter in PS7.
I apologize for not visiting your websites recently. The weather is perfect and I'm gardening and taking photos. I will catch up.
*****THANK YOU FOR VISITING ANITA'S PHOTOBLOG!*****
I welcome your honest critique, especially if they will improve my photography.
If I have made a mistake in a flower identification, please let me know!
A few words about the EXIF data, beginning in April when I began using Nikon D300 and the Sigma 105mm macro: My new camera and macro lens record the relative or effective f stop, not the one seen on the lens. For an explanation of this, go to the next to the last question at this site.
@Arash: Thank you, Arash!
