Day 152
Day 152 - The Zoomin' Rose
In honor of posting with my beloved 24-105 lens after a month of only the prime lens, I used my entire focal length from 24mm to 105mm for this rose.
Note the daily raindrop. I dodged wind gusts and passing storms to play tonight.
I used the tripod and shot from above rose so that I would have the grass as my background.
After some experimentation, I ended up using my smallest aperture, a slow shutter speed and the on camera flash to catch the rain drops before the rose started to move with the wind.
I did find that I was most successful starting at 24mm and ending at 105mm.
