Buttonbush blossom - very common in this area near water. The bloom is slightly smaller than a ping-pong ball.

Did you use any extension tubes or bellows Dave?

Nope, didn't need 'em. Probably cropped a bit--but not severely.

Passionflower, a bit past it's prime...

The individual flowers are too big for the tiny flower thread, not shot with a macro lens, and individually are not big, but the cluster was about 6 inches, so thought it might qualify as a "bigger flower."

Shot with DFA 28-100mm

Once up on my screen I continued to study the subject, and decided it was very nice looking in its natural state. The light seemed just right and the composition was very good. So I decided to leave it in its purest form and I am glad that I did. I know I could have made many adjustments, but I thought, why? I like it and I hope you will as well.

Focal Length 116mm, no flash and used Multi-Segment Metering.

Thanks for viewing.

Looks great Tony. Leaving it alone was a good idea
