Another flower that still bloomed the second week of November!

*****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.

In the sun, from my usual perspective, the Clematis is a solid bold flower. This view (wonderful composition) provides an entirely different perspective -- as delicate as a what we used to call Japanese lanterns on a summer evening.
