This is the time of year when you start looking for color, for signs of spring.
Unfortunately, it was another week where I didn't have time to dedicate to a real photo expedition. We'll have to settle for the rhododendron bush in the front yard.
I twisted on the 50 mm lens, which isn't the best for macros, but it worked. Here is a bud, just waiting for springtime warmth and sunshine.
f stop here was 5.0, and it was successful in getting some background blur.
A coworker, also known as Wolfie, is trying to get me interested in macro. This could be the year. While the blog is a lot of landscapes, trains, and light trails, I hope to mix a macro in once in a while. In fact, one of the top photos of 2020 was a macro, and it is one of my favorite shots.
I fear it will be a while before the rhododendron blooms. I'll be ready with the camera when it does.
