~Pretty Petals~

Macro Monday 1-23
Canon EOS R6, ISO 4000, f/8, Exposure 1/50 sec.

After working on this site changing out this theme 1,222,348,999 times *ugh*, I realized it was Macro Monday. What a relief to step away from the WP editor. Of course, I gathered up some roses for a couple of posy photos and taking a walk outside always does the trick to relieve my thoughts.

Macro Mon. 1-23-23 #2
Canon EOS R6, ISO 250, f/22, Exposure 2.5 sec.

These were taken with the Canon R6 and Canon 100mm lens after picking them. In a room with some not-so-great lighting I experimented a bit with a higher ISO of which I never use, and the top photo turned out pretty good with that. I think my favorite though is the featured image.

I sure do love Macro’d flowers and when the lens can get this close its a show and tell of just how complicated those beautiful pieces of nature are.

Til next time,

    Beautiful pastels for today. I’m so glad that you stopped by and played along with everyone 😀 😀

      Thank you, Cee It has been a long haul since Mr. Murray passed and he kind of took me to a place of deep sadness. I finally came up and over that one and made the decision to slow down on 365 and go here full on. So, yes, I am happy to see you all have kept the beautiful photos for the eyes. 🙂

    Really pretty macros – I’m glad you remembered to share them! Have you settled on a theme? I have to say I like the simplicity of this post’s appearance. It lets the photos do the talking 🙂

      I think this is it. There’s a bit of scrolling involved but I think this is the best for what I do here. Thank you!

    Your macros are very beautiful, Kathleen Jennette! You are lucky to find a theme you can use considering the poor choices offered by WP. I’d love to change mine but nothing ever renders how I want it.

      It took me a long time. Cross fingers they don’t take this one away.

        WP is great for not telling its users about themes being retired…

          I guess they do on the “theme” page. It had it on. I just never there. It started glitching and then I looked so at least I didn’t lose the blog.

            I’m glad your blog is okay!

              Thank you, John! I am glad you are still here too 🙂

              Thanks, I had considered closing my blog down in the past because of the amount of time blogging can gobble up but obviously never did.
