Beautiful work! Flora macros are my first love.
I like all three. What lens or lens combo are you using?
Posted by James H Egbert on June 19, 2009 at 10:52 PM
I'm using a very old Tamron 90mm SP 1:25 f/2.8 - f/32 with an Extension tube. on my Nikon D90. Totally manual. Camera was saying "What The..." the entire time. :jump:

James, your portfolio of images like this is getting really good! These are all sweet.

I agree. You've got a nice set here James.

Nice stuff, James.
I was on Old Stage Road Friday afternoon near the Broadmoor Riding Stables checking on a patch of Columbine I know to exist up there. The other day there were none, today there was just one, but plenty of Columbine buds. I expect to see them bloom early next week.

Very sweet. I love flower macros too. Good job.

love the ferns!

These are all sweet James, great light and processing on all 3!. I have the same Tamron 90mm lens, it maybe old (though they do still make it), but it is a great lens!.

I love seeing good macro images, and these are very good indeed!

Great job James! I particularly like the composition you used with the ferns! :toast:

I like your compositions and the light that you captured.

Your portfolio is definitely benifitting from your forays into the foothills near home. Really nice shots!

Great shots! Love the ferns, but the soft light on the hairbell - fantastic!
Posted by Dan Walters on June 21, 2009 at 6:19 PM
I really like the details in the ferns.

Wow, really cool shots, James - different and unique and compelling in their own ways! :toast:
