Purple Iris
Purple iris. Good picture, I think… not the best angle though. Picture taken with Canon Rebel XT (300D), EF-S 18-55mm lens @ 48mm, f/5.6, 1/500 sec, ISO 400.

Flower
Couldn’t tell you what this one is, but with the darker colors and being all in one plane the picture turned out alright. Background is a little distracting. Picture taken with Canon Rebel XT (300D), EF 70-300mm lens @ 130mm, f/6.3, 1/20 sec, ISO 400.
Yellow Lilly
A yellow lilly… Maybe some depth of field limitations coming into play here. Picture taken with Canon Rebel XT (300D), EF 70-300mm lens @ 190mm, f/5.6, 1/250 sec, ISO 400.
Buds
Because it was asked… left/top as posted yesterday, right/bottom slight adjustment to the reds. I think it does look better slightly desaturated – but that also might be because I’m viewing it on a monitor that washes out details once it gets to a certain level. I don’t have the… Continue reading
Tiger Lilly
A tiger lilly… I think it suffers the same saturation degradation as the bulb from yesterday. Probably could be solved if I had the picture in RAW format… but alas. Picture taken with Canon Rebel XT (300D), EF 70-300mm lens @ 140mm, f/5.0, 1/80 sec, ISO 100.
Peony Bud
Well, if not a flower yet, in the future it will be… I don’t like what the saturation does to the red, but I’m not sure I like the desaturated version better or not. Update: I’ve been informed, with a high degree of confidence, that this is a peony bud…. Continue reading
MSU Radiology Garden
This is a so-so picture of the fountain that is / was part of the garden outside the radiology building at MSU. I think somewhere I have one that I like a bit more that was taken at night, but that’s irrelevant now. For a few years when I was… Continue reading
Lorikeet
Older picture from Busch Gardens in Florida from back in the day of the C-2040z. I probably have a dozen pictures of these guys that turned out quite good given the megapixel limitations of the camera being used. Granted, they’re of birds that naturally look very pretty and are taken… Continue reading
Hancock Building
The Hancock Building in Chicago, good only for it’s interesting perspective. Taken with my favorite camera to gripe about, the SX130. I can’t complain too much, as this was taken in the dark, handheld. Picture taken with Canon SX130 IS, lens at 5mm (36mm equiv), f/3.4, 1.0 sec, ISO 1600
Bryce Canyon
Another from Bryce – this was another that wasn’t really thought out, but I like how it turned out. This was on the Queen’s Garden hike. It was actually surprisingly dark at the bottom of the canyon as evidence by the ISO 400 need just to keep the shutter speed… Continue reading
