Being in lockdown means I am struggling a little for content. The spring bulbs in the garden have all gone, the aliums aren't out yet and it is too early for the summer blooms.
My garden pond has provided these rather beautiful marsh marigolds, shot with a vintage Sirius 28mm f2.8 macro lens, that I picked up for £5-00
The lens gets mixed reviews , but I think it did a half decent job here
How lovely to have Marsh mallows in your pond reminds me of my childhood when we used to go to a soggy , boggy field to look for marsh mallows !Great memories Phil !
The lens does what the photographer wants it to do and in hands like yours it definitely works well. Beautiful marigolds. On Facebook I am posting mainly pictures from around the garden and on 365 continuing with my account of my fantastic Rome experience. When I'm finished from both I will have to start looking around the house.
Beautiful! Kind regards, Phil, I can only be here occasionally now, mostly on FB, where I can post other things, have more involvement. I can't maintain enough quality photos on 365. Take care.
Very pretty ones. Yes, I sympathise with that thought. There aren't many places to walk around here and most of them are on the streets, so images are difficult. But keep going. You don't have to have a masterpiece at every turn. It's an interesting record of these bizarre times to have something at all on camera.
@ellida Casa' good shout about not every pic needing to be a masterpiece, especially in these troubled times :)
