Who doesn't love a pretty flower?! | Tuesday Jun 30, 2009
I love how this flower photo turned out. I used close-up lenses screwed onto the front of my lens, and also shaded part of the flower from the sun with a big piece of paper (it was a very hot sunny day). The close-up lenses gave a really nice shallow depth of field, which makes most of the photo look kind of painterly to me. It took me more than an hour on the internet to find the name of this flower. And I decided I really don't like the name at all. It is called a Large Flowered Beardtongue. An unattractive name for a beautiful flower.
