THE FULL BEAUTY OF MOTHER NATURE

in #photography7 years ago (edited)

Namaste All:

As I continue to experiment with Macro-photography I am amazed at what it can do. I still like my other lenses, but doing a lot more with the Macro lens.

In making my selection of photographs today some were very easy to choose, but others it was more difficult. I did set some aside for another post. I feel they were good enough but wanted to limit the number to 7.

I find it fascinating how each person seems to have their own preference as to which flower they like the best. I tend to like them all, but try and choose one that inspires me for the first photograph that I upload. This time I could narrow it down to two but then have struggled deciding which I should put first.

I have chosen today to use the photograph of the blossom from my Hawthorne tree. Hawthorne trees seem to have different colors of blossom. This one has a color that is just wonderful.

I do not know the name of this next flower...It was in a mix of wild flower seeds we planted last year. I was pleasantly surprised when I download the image to my PC. It is a small flower, although the macro lens seems to be able to make it a work of art. I will let the image speak for itself and see what you think:

This next one is the end stage of the flower of the Dandelion. I know of a lot of people who do not like Dandelions. I like them when they flower, but I also like them when they are ready to send out their seeds. I recall when I was quite young of how much pleasure I derived from blowing the seeds and let them flow with the wind. When you look close at this next photo it shows some amazing designs:

In previous posts I included photos of my Siberian Iris, but now we have moved into when our regular Iris bloom. I have only two colors blooming this year. I plan on dividing the lighter colored on so I can expand our bed. You can also make out the small yellow flower in the loer right hand side of the photograph to give you an idea of the size of the flower in photograph 2.

This next one was a "bed" of tiny flowers that were surrounding my Rhubarb patch when I went to harvest some last weekend. I later found a similar situation surrounding one of my apple trees. I have no idea what it is called, but it is very pleasant to the eye.

The final photograph for this post is one of my Lilacs. Early in the bloom it is a little darker in color, yet I still find them beautiful in this shade. Lilacs have a wonderful smell, almost like a perfume. Unfortunately I am allergic to the smell, although I still have to inhale their smell. I get a headache every time, but I always have enjoyed these shrubs and their beauty since I was a child:

I trust you will enjoy this post. I am thinking about what I will put in my next post all week, and find subject materal and gather photographs as the week progresses.

Some have asked about my use of Nameste so in closing I thought I would explain a little of what it means to me and why I use it. I cannot recall where I first learned of the word and it's meaning. To me I use it in greeting and in saying goodbye. My meaning is that The Divine in me bows to the Divine in you!

Looking at flowers, simple things in life. I don't need to look at gold and a castle; sometimes its very simple things that are very beautiful. I am keeping my eyes fresh to find beauty in many places, and in gold, too, sometimes...

These are one hell of a photography ...i really love the macro photography ,it tries to focus on the thing you are interested in taking the shitty background away ,making a click perfect...
I loved the yellow flower and the first one....those two are the beautiful ones....
Last one seems quite good also gives a creamy detain on lilacs...

Thank you. Yes the last one was not quite as good as i would have likes.. I forgot they were bloomming or i would have gotten photos at their prime. Thank you for visiting my post

That be my camera. My granddaughter bought a Nikon for a photography class she took a couple of years ago. She really likes hers. I had one of the first digital Canon cameras that came out and loved the quality for only 7 megapixels. So as I started reviewing cameras when I wanted a little bit better quality I was already leaning toward a Canon. I have no regrets. My daughter ended up buying the T6 last year.

Glad to know that you got that gift from your daughter.There is nothing more pleasure to get gift from children.
Keep photography up.

Thank you very much

Wow postigan anda bagus bangat saya tertarik sama postigan anda dan saya akan membagikan postigan anda

terima kasih atas kata-kata baik Anda

these are a few simple tips from me ...

After the rain is a good time to look for objects for macro photography, when the objects around are filled with water droplets. Come closer to the subject to get how the rain point becomes "magnifying lens". The rain point magnifies the pattern on the surface where it is attached.

No matter how good your hand holds the camera while photographing macro photos, camera shake still often interrupts your photo. You should also always use a tripod in macro photography. If you have it, you must use the remote to press the shutter button properly, so that the effect of blur on your subject is not excessive.

For some of the same reasons why you should use a tripod and a remote controller in macro photography, the wind is also one of the obstacles in macro photography. Movement of the subject caused by the wind can interfere and make your macro photos clutter. If you are forced to shoot in windy weather, be patient and wait for the wind to stop and then you can take pictures, and increase your shutter speed, as much as possible.

Thank you Mister @r2cornell for sharing beautiful photo...I am big fans for you...

Thank you. And thank you for these tips. I have seen the results of water droplets in macro-photography but have yet to try. Yes the wind is not helpful. I do have a tripod and may try it soon because I have a beautiful flower I am trying to capture but cannot quite get a quality photo. I never thought about the tripod.

Sir your photography really beautiful. Really interesting to your photography. Your Natural Loving Photography.....

Thank you

Excellent.
