A few more orchids
Posted By: NaClH2O, 03-17-2007, 10:01 PM

Well, maybe a lot more orchids. Finally finished processing most of the orchid shots I took on the 4th of this month. Here are a some of my favorites. All taken with the DS and either the FA 50 F1.4mm or the Tamron 90mm F2.8 Macro. As always, C&C appreciated.

50mm f2.8 at 1/125



90mm f2.8 at 1/90



90mm f4 at 1/250



DOF experiment 50mm at f13 1/90



50mm f5.6 at 1/180



50mm f5.6 at 1/180



50mm f6.7 at 1/180


I hope you had fun looking

Salty these are great! My wife likes floral shots, and whenever I show a few of your photos she asks for more. Maybe it's the bokeh from your 50?

Hi Alvin, thanks! If you haven't figured it out by now I like flowers too. . If she wants more flowers go here:

I'm still building this category, I've still got 750-1000 flower shots to sort!

Salty,
I like #2, #3 and #5 the best... The highlights in the background of #3 are very cool.

Okay, you've convinced me, spring can come anytime now... LOL.

I really like the shots with the 50mm. I love the results with this lens, but find it hard to use indoors w/o flash.

Are these pictures from the Bronx Botanical Gardens?
