My wife and I went for a walk this morning in our favorite local state park – Jacobsburg. She sought out birds (spotting a Cerulean Warbler and Indigo Bunting among others) while I looked for wildflowers to photograph. I ended up focusing my attention on some Oxeye Daisies, Moth Mullein, and Deptford Pinks. I particularly like the Deptford Pinks because of the color and also because they are so tiny compared to many of the other wildflowers blooming at this time. I should point out that at the same time I was photographing the Pinks, my wife was spotting the Cerulean. So we were both happy albeit for different reasons!
This image was made using my Canon 30D and Canon 70-200mm f/2.8L IS lens w/ a Canon 500D close-up filter/lens; tripod mounted.
