Focal Length 261mm, Manual Exposure Mode, No Fill Flash with CWA Metering.
Quite a challenge with direct, harsh sunlight and strong wind gusts. I was lucky to capture this guy between being bounced around in the wind. Only adjustment I made was
downsizing. This flower is in my neighbor's yard and so not wanting to trespass, I set everything up on the sidewalk, so I could not get that leaf in the front in out of the shot,
however, probably would not have mattered being how windy it is. I forgot to remove the UV haze filter, and I am glad I did. In this instance I see it as being an asset as opposed to a liability.
Hope you folks enjoy this one and thanks for viewing.
