@admin-2 That would be great! I look forward to seeing it.

@dahliaambrose  Thank you very much! I actually used my iphone, hand-held. I just purchased  two macro lenses for it and am learning how to use them.

@admin-2  Thanks Rob, that helps. 🙂

Patrick, thanks, I’m trying to learn and develop my style and skills so I look forward to seeing everyone’s work and hearing comments from everyone.

Thanks LightandShad.

Thanks Dalhia, I do have questions on mobile photography and will try my hand at the mobile challenge.

Marti, I love the black and whites, especially the tulip. Beautiful work.

Here’s another long exposure using the clouds and wind. It’s a Garden Cosmos. Is it too abstract?

I visited Gibbs Gardens in Georgia this weekend to photograph wildflowers and butterflies. It started out cloudy and windy so I took advantage of both with a long exposure. 

Thanks Tersha. I’ve got a couple of new abstracts I’ll post on the throwdown thread.

Thanks Robert.

Thank you all so much for the warm welcome and for taking the time to share your thoughts on my first photo. I really appreciate the thoughtful feedback—it’s both encouraging and helpful as I get back into my photography after a long illness. I’m looking forward to learning from all of you and sharing more work here.
