Later in life...

Posted by dobbino (Cape Town, South Africa) on 9 April 2008 in Plants & Nature and Portfolio.

Different Nandine, same garden, later in the life of this beautiful plant. Exquisite autumn colours. One of my early shots with my 60mm Macro lens - lovely blurred background, but for me not enough of the main image in focus, even though there is soemthing about the image that really appeals to me. Very much taken in the early learning curve with this lens. Handheld shot - whereas now I would probably go f/8 and use a tripod.

Your comments are most welcome, especially the ones with constructive criticism. I love this hobby, but know that I have so much still to learn. If you can help with any suggestions that would improve anything about the images, I would be most grateful. Thank you.
