Calendula 3

Posted by Anita (West Nottingham, United States) on 18 July 2008 in Plant & Nature.

This one if for Koushiro, who requested a view of the inside.
Not as sharp as I would like.

*****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.

It looks more like an oil painting than a photograph. The colors are so deep and rich.

It is really lovely Anita - I love the detail in the centre with the few loose little bits almost "floating" about!
