Daisies

Was at the zoo but couldn’t pass the daisies without taking a few pictures.

Equipment: Sony Alpha 100

Started photography to print bulletins for my church. Still learning and enjoying it more each day.

Good colors but to me it looks a bit cluttered

These are actually Echinacea flowers.

Thanks for sharing, Caleb. Perhaps you have a really good eye for an unexpected shot–in as much as you were at the ZOO & would have had your eye on all the wonderful animals! You’re excused for not identifying them as Echinacea, especially since that was quickly pointed out. We often think good photos of flowers are “a dime a dozen” but they can be tricky! Myself, I like odd numbers & asymmetrical balance & close up. I wish your 3rd flower were bigger & better, but the DOF (focus or lack of it) is great & the beautiful blur of background color is fun, though busy. Try telling flowers to pose, or fix their hairdo or exchange places with their neighbor or for natural light to adjust a little–well, you get what I mean. Just keep having fun & sharing!

Daisy Daisy,
Give me your answer do!
I’m half crazy,
All for the love of you!
It won’t be a stylish marriage,
I can’t afford a carriage,
But you’ll look sweet on the seat
Of a bicycle built for two !
