Love the shots of your flowers. I take wildflower shots each week, hiking around the forest.

Hello

Photographing wildflowers is my blessing in life. I really enjoy it! I will try to attach two flower shots taken from the garden.

Sending Kind Regards,

WFL

Wow those are some lovely shots ladies! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: I love taking photos of flowers because they are so colorful. Thank you for sharing your photos with me. This was the first time that I took photos of my flowers. My cousin told me that I was crazy for taking photos of flowers. :p Continue to take photos because you both have an eye for a good photo shot. God bless!

I just love photographing flowers! I recently got an awesome shot of a ladybug. Just awesome!

One hint I have learned, at least with the camera I am using. It offers auto focus with the macro, however for extreme closeup shots it seems to jump to the backround for focus instead. I put my hand in front of the lense and it re-focus' nicely after removing my hand. My sony is a great camera but I have been told I need to jump up to an 8 mp to sell my shots.

It's so nice to see what God's created. His presence is shown through the world around us. I feel like singing 'My Offering' by Nichole Nordeman! :amen:

I don't suppose you would want to share that shot? I'd love to see it.

I was out walking the dog after a nice rain a couple days ago and took some shots of the flowers in our front yard. Some of them came out quite nicely and I saw this thread and just had to contribute.

P.S. These pics were all taken with my cell phone and haven't been enhanced in anyway. :)

I like the first one (far left) best. What do you all think?

Those are some nice shots coming from a cell phone camera! My cell phone campa produces lousy closeups!

For some reason flowers look so nice when they are wet with dew or rain.

Yes, I will post the ladybug, but I need to add a watermark.

I think it is an awesome pic! I have several other bugs, snails, slugs and spiders in my collection as well. I am hoping to sell a few shots to some stock photography groups.

I love to take photos of flowers. It's just amazing to look the the close details of God's creations.

Just about each time I take a photo, I say a prayer before snapping the photo that GOD will bless the forthcoming photo with the beauty I see in person - to be remembered through my efforts and bless other's lives.

I can not imagine a better way to work within photography!
