Nance,

I have been having difficulty getting rose shots without strong highlights. Another problem is getting the rose overexposed with a dark background. I shot this at F11 & 125 with flash assist the same as the bugs.

I saw one butterfly today. Too windy to photograph. I suppose I could be funny by some random chance, but I am certainly not lucky.

I have heard engineers aren't funny by degree.

well your humor has bested me on this. so have to ask; are you meaning not funny by 'college degree', or not funny by 'degree of measurement'? sorry for spoiling it!

do do more humor--its refreshing

my attempt at humor certainly dosen't always work

your rose and stem/leaves wants to take my breath away. but can't really see the flower sharply cuz my eye-lids are desperatly trying to shut and lock their windows

well, I think its pretty clear that all over the country the climate is all messed up

Nance,

A tiny spider from the garden, and a tile from it.

Very cool!

Very cool for a spider to need to wear a fur coat.

Nice smile, don't you think.

wow, i assume your camera is not a Barbie and Ken made by Mattel model...

Thanks Nance,

I had a dragonfly pose today. Very windy, but I got a few good shots. I have a few more bud photos. Various colors.

Bob,

A view of the camera with a 100mm macro lens and additional flash. I have an off camera flash cable, too.
