Zooming (and Macro) – December 2023
/There was not as much time for photography this past month; I am combining macro (getting close) and zoomed (optical magnification) images in this post.
The macro images go first. The yellow cosmos were part of a small bouquet I cut and put in mini-vase for the middle of my parents’ breakfast table. They enjoyed the enlarged view that I showed them just after I photographed them. The leaves are probably the last new ones of the season on a rose bush that has been blooming next to their garage for over 30 years!
The leaves on a millet plant (came up under the bird feeder!) are interesting as they begin their end-of-season decline.
The zoomed images for December included some birds and plants at Josey Ranch, fall foliage, and zoomed images of glass orbs in yard art…the last flowers in the garden.
In the coming months – the stainless steel iris will be the highlight of the garden!
