This week Ann-Christine gives us the prompt Soft for the Lens-Artists Photo Challenge.

My first thought was of some of the photos I had taken last year when I was experimenting with photographing flowers and plants with various unusual lenses. Mostly fast portrait lenses but also some CCTV lenses adapted to a mirrorless camera.

2020: Greens and Browns — Fern amongst autumn leaves with a CCTV lens.

Family portrait of some Coneflowers — A group of Coneflowers photographed with a fast portrait lens.

Six Word Saturday: First Light on Grass Seed Heads — First light on some grass seed heads with a fast portrait lens.

Weekly Prompts: Greenery — Fern frond detail with a fast portrait lens.

Photo Challenges

Splendour in the Grass

This is my contribution to the Friendly Friday Challenge: Splendour in the Grass prompt.

I had a couple of ideas for the challenge and decided to keep it simple and local with two very different photos of grass taken a few yards apart on my walks around the neighborhood.
