I tried out some close-up photography of the flowers that were blooming in our yard this weekend. For this I put a closeup filter (+3, Hoya) onto my 50mm f/1.8 and shot around the yard. I am pleased with the calming semi-abstract images that resulted.I'll try this screw-on alternative for a while before spending the $$$ on a macro lens (like the 105mm Micro-Nikkor f/2.8G VR).
Perhaps a trip out to the Anza Borrego Desert is in order...The wildflowers are in bloom...or they were a couple of weeks ago...I think the peak is over...perhaps next year.
