Mountain Flowers Macro Monday

DSCF1800


The point and shoot offered its services while hiking in Glacier National Park. I didn't think these turned out too bad. :0)

    Those are great, Lisa - I love the first 'not quite perfect' flower. Such a gorgeous colour! I think things are often more interesting when they're not quite perfect and the composition is spot-on. The focus in both pics is great, too! :)

    hello Lisa~ these flowers are beautiful. i think the middle one is my favorite. isn't it great when we don't have our big cameras with us but can still get a few great shots with our backup cameras? hope all is well.

    O wow! Those flowers look amazing! And you caught them so pretty well with your macro-lens. I love the colors and the pretty details. Over here, in the Netherlands, we are running out of colorfull flowers, as you can see in my post. Though every season definitely has it's own beauty :)
    Keep on going with this great project. I love it and you make me actually do something hahahaha :D

    Wow, Lisa, actual flowers and not bugs! Although I do see one tiny bug, after all. You can bet I really like the flower photos. Well done!

    I love that last blue one....what a beautiful color. I've been fighting a stomach flu these last 2 days and so my post is at the end of the line...maybe the last one for this time around. Happy MM ya'll.

    A day late, and a dollar short...:-). I forgot all about it. Anyhow, thought this was one of the best macros I have had in a while. I just discovered how to use my darn macro mode on my camera, imagine that. :-) LOL
