A group of Coneflowers
Continuing my project photographing flowers and plants with various unusual lenses.
This group of Coneflowers (also known as Echinacea) was photographed with the Kamlan 50mm lens wide open at f/1.1.
This is my contribution to Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Special Request: Wilting, dead or aging flowers and leaves.
This is a hoarfrost covered Hart’s-tongue Fern. A monochrome original I gave it a blue tint to give it a colder mood.
