From the garden this morning. I don't know the name of this flower.
Lighting: I first placed the flower on a piece of black Perspex. Lit with a Yongnuo flash in a 24 inch gridded soft box at camera left. Fill light came from a mirror at camera right. I used side lighting because it creates the shadows that reveal texture and shapes. The flash and my tripod mounted camera were triggered by a Yongnuo RF-603N.
I've photographed a lot of plants and flowers, because they're all around us, work cheap, and never complain. I have an album of these images with over 1000 pictures, and for each one, I have described how I lit them, in case you're interested in that kind of thing.
I found a set of five point Mule Deer antlers while hiking a few years ago and put them under the bird feeder for the small birds to land on and check for cats before landing on the ground. This Junco seemed to enjoy them.
It was heavily overcast so I tried setting the ISO to 3200 to test the D800's performance.

Five baby roseate spoonbills share this nursery. Actually, there was a sixth baby about two feet to left of these. I'm sure they were a mix from two nests. It seemed that the birds were all getting fed. The adults came in regularly and I couldn't tell one adult from another, because I didn't know the individual birds. There is one fairly easy way to ID individual birds. That is the coloration of the black band/area on their head.....each has a different pattern that is unique to each bird. This is a very early morning shot with fairly low light.

Il campanile della chiesa di San Michele e, a sinistra, quello di San Paolo. Sullo sfondo le Grigne. Ma la cosa più interessante è l'edificio a destra del campanile di San Michele, cioè l'edificio della prima San Michele, utilizzata fino al 1932. Ora fa parte del Collegio "Cardinal Ferrari" delle Suore Sacramentine.
The story behind the image:
"Says Harry to June, / Ola, see you didn't come alone? // Well no, answers June / my father and my brother wanted to come along. // Asks Harry, I count five, / who is the tall one with crutches? // The neighbor, answers June, / by name of Drareg, / and he had a single ticket in supply."
Can be obtained as glycee-print in very limited edition.

We took a drive out in the country yesterday to the village of Radway to photograph an old grain elevator. In a field just across the road were these five old granaries used to hold the seasons crop after it was taken off the field. I love old finds like this as they remind me of the years when my grandparents farmed.
