Brilliant photos Annette. I am interested to know the camera and lens you used for this picture
Thanks Brian, I have a Nikon D7000 and I was using a macro lens – 40mm. I have had the lens over a year now and I love it, though it is difficult to get things sharp; at such close distances there is not much leeway.
Bursts of sunshine.
It is a gorgeous design, Angie. You never know what you are going to get when you buy them.
I have a book I bought in college titled something like Abstraction In Nature. Your fine image has me wanting to dig that book out and sink into nature’s wonderful patterns today.
That sounds a very interesting book – glad you enjoyed the wonderful patterns in my Gazania. The whole flower didn’t look real – more like something in an animation as it was so vivid.
Pretty! I have a garden full of them. Well not yet anyway 😉
Lucky you – I only have a few as they don’t survive the winter here so I have to buy them each year. I might try overwintering them in my little grow house this year, but I think it will still be too cold for them.
I did a double take with the brightness of this – stunning, in every sense of the word!
Thanks Cathy, it is a beauty and stands out from the yellow ones I also have.
Gorgeous, a lovely shot.
Thanks – it is a beautiful flower.
