... this year!  I *finally* got my first bloom - a Rio Samba.  First two taken with the HS-20.  The shutter release cable I got from Gadget Infinity works just fine!  This is natural rain because... YES - it's raining AGAIN!! 





From the E-620.  I *GOTTA* remember to take this thing out of "Vivid" mode.

Absolutely beautiful, Gary!!      

Gary, those photos are beautiful!  Just a big "WOW"!!!

Lucky you having roses already.  My one lonely rose bush doesn't even have a bud yet.

Which color is closer to the "real thing"?

Thanks, everyone.   The first two are closest to the true color.  In fact, they're spot on.

Thanks, Gary.  Of course all three are beautiful.   

Very nice!  I just got my E-620 and am starting to practice with it.  Care to share any tips you've learned about that camera?  Care to share your settings with that last shot of yours?  Beautiful work!!!

Thanks very much   The very BEST tip(s) I can give you is:  Get "The Digital Photography Book" by Scott Kelby and "Understanding Photography Field Guide" by Bryan Peterson...  and READ THEM!  While you MIGHT be able to get away with DIY accessories, there is no shortcut to good photos.  If you want professional results, you have to do what professionals do.

Thanks for the book tips Gary!  I am currently enrolled in a class through New York Institute of Photography and all my "spare" time is devoted to that class.  Trying to work my day job Mon-Fri and my dream job (photography) and school and church and family Sat and Sun.......at least I'm never bored.
