i was sitting outside doing my sudoku last night after work, and i looked up at the now-dying sprigs from a flower i'd potted that broke off in the process - they were mid-bud, so i just stuck them in water, and they continued to bloom - but, their life span has now waned, and as the hanging petals blew in the soft breeze, i thought, ooh, this is in need of lens baby, and i've been wanting to shoot more film, so i got out the f3, and the d3 since i wanted some color, too - so here are the results - the big light circles are actually light reflecting off my car windows, parked in the background, and with the macro and flare from the lensBABY, it made for some interesting effects, which i tried to work in both venues...anyway, more fun with photography and film, and i hope the results make for enjoyable viewing!!

this one actually was shot a month ago - it's called the "sensitive plant" - when you touch the leaves, they close in upon themselves, like an accordion, and the flowers are these puffy, galactic looking things - just thought they were cool, and liked the whole idea of its sensitivity - ironically, neither wind nor water make them react this way, just touch - how fascinating!
