I was once again battling the wind in order to take photos today. However, I was persistent and got a few good shots.

This one was taken this morning before the wind started. FA 100/macro "the tank."

Well taken. Here's a tip, if it's windy increase your shutter speed up to 250/per sec and that should help.

I had it set pretty high. My biggest challenge is keeping the flower within the frame when it's really gusting. I had one yellow rose that I kept chasing around with the camera before i just gave up, LOL.

Ah, the highs and lows of outdoor macro photography. Good shots in the wind.
