Standing under these dogwood trees yesterday, I felt like I had been transported to someplace like heaven -- they were simply glowing.
Another shot from the Rockefeller Chapel at The University of Chicago. Nothing fancy here. I can't wait to head back...I just ordered my Pentax 10-17mm fish-eye and can't wait to use it. And I think the UofC has tons to offer for the fish-eye.
The Nikkor 70-200 makes the D5100 look sort of tiny! Strobist info - Three SB800's fired by a Phottix Odin. Main Light, camera right, shot through umbrella. Fill light, camera left, shot through umbrella. Backdrop light, bare, pointed directly at the backdrop. For the main and fill light I had the Phottix Odin set in the TTL A:B mode, lighting ratio at 3:1, EV at -1. Backdrop light in manual,1/64 power, zoom set at 85mm. Edited in Lightroom 4.
Deleted the previous post, sorry and thank you for your wishes :)
This is from archives, Split Hibiscus from my terrace. Missing flowers, leaves, butterflies, dragon-flies, insects and other green things.
Remember, we are all affecting the world every moment, whether we mean to or not. Our actions and states of mind matter, because we're so deeply interconnected with one another. Working on our own consciousness is the most important thing that we are doing at any moment, and being love is the supreme creative act.

Window detail from a church in the old town area of Siegen, Germany. I'll have to do some more investigation to come up with the background.
'Light' always plays such an important role in how I choose to photograph things...I'm always Amazed at how it can enhance shape and re-define definition...Magically taking something ordinary and transform it into something 'Extraordinary' !~
Loved the wings on this bee. I find my problems with macro photography are (a) fighting the urge to crop the image or (b) moving in too close. I enjoy seeing pollinators doing what they do best: pollinating. Removing the flowers and focusing on the bee alone, while providing a cool image, isn't the whole story.
Worth a look in light box :)
A giant thank you to Jim (SARhounds) who put me on the right track for the plant ID!
