I have been playing around with digital photography for about 10 years now.  I am getting a little more serious about it now.  Most of my flower shots are taken in my yard.  I have a wildlife friendly backyard where I do feed the birds and the squirrels (they come with the territory).
 I try to minimally edit and crop my photos.  I  do not manipulate the photos using Photoshop.  I do some work using Lightroom 3.
 Please do not use any of my photos without permission.
