Summer flowers

Lavender - Do you see the bee?

Crocosmia

Oriental Poppy

Shasta Daisy

I got a new 50 mm lens for my D-SLR camera for my birthday and have been having fun playing around with it. I decided to capture the summer flowers in my garden to test it out. The aperture opens up all the way to 1.4 and produces a Bokah effect (blurring of the background) by using a shallow depth of field.

I'm having so much Fun!
