Today’s post is all in-camera work. I used my Canon 5D Mark II with the 70-200mm / 2.8 lens and a Canon 500D diopter. Our CNPA group was at Duke Gardens and it was a bit windy so I found a pot of ferns behind a building out of the wind. With the setup described above I had a great time exploring the ferns with just one spot in focus (or none) at the f/2.8 setting for most shots. Here are a few more examples.
Susan the composition and the softness of the images look great. I think you have had cooler weather in North Carolina for June than we have had in Michigan.
Hi Paul… it was fun shooting the pot of ferns… and it has been delightful here so far but today starts the heat… nothing like DC is going to get though… summer is upon us!
Sorry I missed it. I had to attend an unexpected funeral today. Great shots. I am gonna try and get out there tomorrow.
Sorry to hear about a funeral. Hope you get out there tomorrow… still going to be very nice weather and cool for June.
