GailAnthonyHarmer 6 Posted June 7, 2010 Visited a Greenhouse that my parents had told us about. Mom said it was so beautiful, and just goes on forever and forever. Well, I wish we had checked it out sooner. A Wonderful Gem of a Paradise, you would never know it from the road. Griffin's carries many new varieties of flowers, has a big pond in the middle of the Property, and an area where you can even have Wedding Photos taken. By the pond there are benches to just sit and bask in the sun, or enjoy a good book. One of the owners' is also a Photographer. I did take more phtotos of flowers, but when I spyed these deep burgandy Peonies still in bud, I could not resist the color. (comments welcome with thanks, and be assured I have not become obsessed with 'Ants' ! tnks for looking, Gail Link to comment

william_staniforth 0 Posted June 11, 2010 Marvelous macro shot , the colours are amazing and I like the cast shadow . Are you using an off camera flash ? Bill Link to comment
GailAnthonyHarmer 6 Posted June 14, 2010 I think it's amazing I even captured this shot. It was a 'full sunny day' and many images I took got tossed. I've a lot to learn yet re: exposure. So to answer your question, nope....no flash. Tnks for asking though, and for your time and critique, Sincerely, Gail Link to comment
