Day 1: Flowers?
I’ve avoided botany like the plague throughout my degree but I think it has caught up with me. I’ve been taking photos of flowers a lot, and do not have the first clue of their classification. For all I know, this could be an apple blossom… Help with identification would be actually really appreciated/credited!

Dew
Again, unsure about the technique with these photos. I tried to make the edges of the droplet in focus and sharp. I think that works best.

Fresher
…is something I won’t be again. Just testing out my awesome zoom lens. I forgot what it feels like to be able to zoom out! P.S.: I’m testing what is the optimal time for my posts so they won’t necessarily be at the usual 7-8am (GMT).

Macro Week
3 macro posts in a row. Well its not like im just gonna stop using my new babylens. Not sure what this plant is since I avoided botany like the plague but it seems its a weed, though a rather pretty weed.

I hate spiders.
Slowly getting over irrational fears. This one is perfectly rational though, I mean… SPIDERS! This one I could handle though, a whole 1cm of spider! Needed some practice in insect macro in preparation for my formica rufa documentary and luckily got the mandibles in focus here.

Nothing better to break up revision than some macro photography in the ‘garden’. I say that because the thing outside my door is about as close to a garden as this is to a healthy dandelion. In related news, loving the Canon 100mm f2.8L. It really makes the most boring shots a little more interesting.

Live
I love taking photos of rain. I could never capture the droplets with just the right amount of movement but not so big as to make them smudges. Also learned how to mask digital noise a little better than before. The smoothness becomes a bit obvious on the table but I’d rather have that than grain.

Technicolor
Spring is the best time for nature photos. Can’t wait for my student loan to come through so I can spend it all on a macro lens!
