A local florist post a different name every week on their sign to come in for a free rose...
this week they had my name listed :o)
I was having camera withdrawals and decided what better photo Op than a rose...I played and played...and these are the photos I liked the best...





I used the Macro lens and the Macro flash...but even turning the flash down it was just too much...So I went with no flash, tripod, and remote shutter release...I think a light box would have been perfect...a project to build on a rainy day...Maybe tomorrow if I have time I'll work with the rose in the daylight...
I also think a white balance card would help so the colors were spot on...

This was definitely more fun than dealing with a sick child...Michael came home from school Thursday with a headache and fever...he stayed home from school Friday as he still had a fever and headache...This morning he was fine and this evening he told me he had a sore throat...ugh!! It just never ends...I am just stunned at how everyone I know with children has had one or more of their kids sick this year almost every day...and thankful I only have one child to deal with...it's awful...So I'll take a free rose any day!!
