Lately, I've been spending a lot of time in my garden in the early mornings. Because my new Sony Alpha 6300 has excellent dynamic range, I've started experimenting with bokeh, using my 18-200mm telephoto lens.
Japanese maple
The telephoto makes it easy. In most of my shots, I'm actually 3-4 feet away, using a 100-140mm focal length.
Another tulip. I don't really have many tulips in my yard -- it's just that they're highly photogenic (even when giving up the ghost, as this was).
I'll post more flower photos as spring progresses. For now, here's a spruce branch, waving goodbye (until another day).
