And now, I know they come in all shapes and sizes.<br />The stunning photos, I'm holding back on them. Standby and I'll slip a few of the ones, I think are really stunning in a few upcoming posts and maybe, start up a flower gallery on the website.<br /><br />Cheers,<br />MikeRyukyuMikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06274885659789720372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3603293883718966986.post-5761186361293890412011-02-10T17:53:08.000-08:002011-02-10T17:53:08.000-08:00Mobile Lawyer,

That'd be my kinda shootin'.<br />Thanks for the comments.<br />See you again at Travel Photo Thursday next week. I guess we're regulars there, now.RyukyuMikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06274885659789720372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3603293883718966986.post-16667155227232202262011-02-10T17:36:05.934-08:002011-02-10T17:36:05.934-08:00Ryan,

I figured they may not permit opening of umbrellas and using reflector boards for my shots.<br />Now, I know I can get away with it next time.<br />Turns out, I really had a great day there. It was a "gas", I guess you could say !RyukyuMikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06274885659789720372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3603293883718966986.post-85148449896968745672011-02-10T17:26:12.892-08:002011-02-10T17:26:12.892-08:00LadyE,

I take shots oven tiny weeds in flower, but to me they are part of the landscape many just don't appreciate. But orchids are rather special.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07618511960243841803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3603293883718966986.post-3403596196732254542011-02-10T08:47:54.792-08:002011-02-10T08:47:54.792-08:00these are really, really lovely shots.

We went to the sale a few years ago and the parking lot was full of cars with license plates from all over the US.
