A Simple Pretty Flower for a Sunday – 7
Here’s the seventh installment of “A Simple Pretty Flower for a Sunday.” You can view all the earlier Sunday flower posts on this page.
This was actually a flower I purchased. 😉 Back in October I wanted to use my tripod, so I could get longer exposures and smaller apertures, and thus get more detail in the flower photo. Have a great Sunday!
Shot with the 105mm macro lens at f/20 and at a shutter speed of 2.5 seconds.

Thats an interesting flower. Do you know what kind it is? And I like the crispness of it, so well done 🙂

Sorry, Cin. I don’t know what it is. I was at the same store, and they didn’t have any more today.

Stunning! I like the composition of the color on this picture. Is it dahlia?
Inge said this on November 7, 2011 at 5:05 pm |
Thank, Inge! No, this one isn’t a Dahlia, this time. I really don’t know what it is. It was a small flower. Thanks for your comment.
