Went over to my MIL(Val) house she has a native garden. So lots of things to photograph. It was windy though, and I mean windy! So it was hard to hold the camera, focus and hold the subject to keep it still. I had to use my archery instincts and wait for the wind to die down. In hindsight I should have used my tripod. Stupid stupid stupid me! So the images that I thought were awesome worked out all yuck. Once I figured out my iso problem as well I noticed that when I would put the light metre on the right exposure, it would over exposure it. So I had to manually underexpose it so it didn't look washed out.
Overall this one ended being the best out of the bunch. I still had to sharpen it, Oh well I learned from my mistakes. Learned a lot that's for sure.
Kangaroo Paw
And a bonus one. It's an Australia native plant, but I can't remember the name of it.
I like it, but it's noisy, the iso was 1800. I had it set to 200, and I checked it, but it went to 1800. Needless to say I changed the iso off auto and left it at 200. I'm learning new things about my camera everyday, and my lens too for that matter.
The plant is from the genus grevillea.
