I’ve been practicing shots of flowers with my new telephoto lens.
A bud from the apple tree in our backyard in Vermont. Macro with manual focus.
Flowers (and a bee) from the same tree. Autofocus.
Rhododendron bud, Hudson. Macro, manual focus
Poppy, Hudson. Manual focus.

Beautiful! I’ve been photographing flowers lately, too. It’s a great excuse just to be outside.
