Full of the Ubuflu and in no mood to venture out, so I settled for trying out my new SB-600 Speedlight on the roses that my other half bought.

I've never understood why people hate dandelions or daisies or buttercups. Sure, if you want a perfect green croquet lawn then they might be a scourge but otherwise why hate something so spontaneous and hardy and beautiful?

I'm particularly pleased with how the stamina came out in this shot, especially when you consider that I was shooting it with a lens that really isn't meant for this kind of work at all.

And next to yesterday's cherry blossom, we have pear blossom. And I mean next to as in "right next to," because the two trees, sakura and pear, are intertwined with each other, sharing a living space in the centre of the old orchard that more-or-less acts as our garden, menagerie and wildlife reserve.
