It is time for another photography prompt! I’m always seeking new prompts and new ideas to keep me thinking about my craft. I’ve tried scavenger hunts, contests, and a variety of fun ideas just to keep my juices flowing. I think added the macro lens to my gear lineup recently has opened up all new possibilities for me to stretch my creative flow. I have found I really enjoy photographing flowers. Capturing details at weddings is tremendously easier and a whole lot more fun these days as well. I could get carried away! But I have to remember I am on the job and I need to get on to the next thing.
On Saturday I took a few extra moments with the bride’s bouquet. I knew MCP’s weekly photo prompt was all about “nature.” I felt these gorgeous flowers fit the bill. After I took my usual shots of the entire bouquet, which I will share soon, I switched to my macro lens and got close to a few particular roses in the bunch. This is what I captured.

I’m working on a collection of macro photographs for an upcoming blog series. Stay tuned! Happy Wednesday and as always… leave a comment and tell me what you think!






you rock!
Gorgeous! I can’t wait to see you go to work with that wonderful lens this Sunday at our wedding. REALLY looking forward to working with you (again!) and will be in touch with details soon.
