A quiet walk along the foreshore this morning yields meditative results.

Nice shots Gary. Very sharp. Here are some from Saturday as the Australian bush starts heading towards Spring. I have generally just walked by this stuff but gradually learning to look more carefully with a camera in my hand.

I do love the texture of these flowers though I’m finding them difficult to photograph because I’m not sure where I should set the depth of field.

That's my worry when photographing flowers as fell haha. They can be quite tricky.
 
DOF looks good to me. Advice I got from a pro was to focus on the tip of a leaf or petal. I did it manage to nail that on many of my shots though.

Still perfect weather here for this type of photography. Can’t get enough time away from work! 😂
