After a stormy evening, the morning sun punched through revealing gorgeous flowers in our back yard. After posting one of the photos on instagram, one of my coworkers identified it as jasmine. The smell of this particular flower is divine, reminiscent of an expensive yet subtle perfume.
Jasminum polyanthum, also known as pink jasmine or white jasmine, is an evergreen twining climber native to China and Burma (Myanmar).[1] It produces an abundance of reddish-pink flower buds in late winter and early spring, followed by fragrant five-petalled star-like white flowers which are about 2 cm in diameter. It has compound leaves with 5 to 7 leaflets which are dark green on the upper surface and a lighter green on the lower surface. The terminal leaflet is noticeably larger than the other leaflets. The plant is very vigorous and can grow up to 6 metres in height when supported. Depending on the climate, this vine has a semi-deciduous to evergreen foliage. –Wikipedia
I used my dad’s 55mm f3.5 with an extension tube to shoot these macro photos. It’s astonishing to think that this lens is probably over 30 years old and can still produce stunning images.
As much as I like the 58mm f1.4, this old 55mm f3.5 is a ton of fun to use… and has the ability to create curious images like this. I’m thinking the next step is to try shooting more macro photos with a strobe and stopping down the lens to create even sharper images.
I’m not sure what kinds of plants these are, but they’re growing like wild fire. I’d like to grow a garden, but these things have literally taken over.
Anyway, I’m hoping everyone is enjoying the weather. It finally feels like spring.
Was auch mal ganz nett wäre, wenn man in einem Tunier selbst Münzen setzen könnte um sie einfach zu verdoppeln, dann wäre das Problem mit zu überteuerten Karten mal ein bisschen in den griff. Außerdem gibt es immer viel zu wenig Sondertuniere man kann doch nicht 100 mal das gleiche Tunier spielen wäre auch mal eine ganz gute idee wenn man mal bei einem Online Spiel bei Ultimate Team Spieler setzen könnte das wäre einfach Krass und Geil ^^
