Native Columbine
Posted by Anita (West Nottingham, United States) on 19 May 2009 in Plant & Nature.
This is our Native Columbine, versus the Garden Columbines of my prior posts. Taken outdoors in my garden.
*****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.

Beautifully portrayed . . again, I like that you have left the colors 'natural' which has given the shot added reality.

@Ronnie 2¢: Thanks for your comment about leaving the colors natural. I assume you mean not highly saturated? I find that many images I see are more saturated than I like, but, they do seem to be popular with many viewers, on screen and in print.
