Guilty as charged… more dogwoods. I’m sorrrrrrrrry. I can’t help myself. Remember my post from a few days ago where I mentioned that I took 200+ shots of dogwoods on my outing on Saturday? I wasn’t kidding. Don’t worry, I don’t plan on sharing 200+ dogwood photographs (maybe just 199?) Thankfully, my trip is coming up so there will definitely be a change of scenery, if you will… well, unless I run across a bunch of dogwoods on the drive between Manchester and Shannon.
Today’s Photos of the Day are “Crimson” and “Cornouiller Rouge.” I love the patterns that clusters of dogwoods form, especially when they are a colorful butter yellow or red.
I promise to find new flowers to obsess over… or hey, maybe I could actually try taking more photographs of my wonderful city?
Enjoy!

Very lovely. I truly appreciate your technique and the way you “soften” your images. I think this is more than just a shallow depth of field…at least in some of your images (perhaps not all).?
Thanks Al… actually these two photographs aren’t blurred in post at all. These are all as shot. I have two lenses who soften areas like butter
Some of my images I do help along but the latest Spring photographs aren’t.
Ah hah! Would one of those be a Lensbaby?
Great! I love my 24-70, too, but recently was using my 75-300. Here are some attempts: http://hillstreetblues.wordpress.com/2012/04/10/tulips/
Very nice Al
