Pacific Dogwood flowers

[Tim Z]

Our native Pacific Dogwood trees are just starting to blossom. Here's a few shots today of a tree in my yard.

D200 with Nikkor 105 micro.

Cheers

All of these shots do it for me equally, in particular the defocus background is consistently smooth in each shot.

Pretty captures, Tim. The first one, in particular, shows interesting texture.

Very interesting flower and tree, don't think we have dogwood Downunder.

Great capture and good DOF for the flower.

As stated the dof control and sharpness is great Tim! You should kee this spot in mind when they come into full colour! :smile:

Nice work as always

Gorgeous photos, Tim. I don't think I've ever seen those before. Thanks for sharing something new (new to me anyways).

Absolutely beautiful Tim!! There are several young dogwoods in the memory garden. They are are still budding. I don't expect to see blooms for a few more weeks. We did have a few pink dogwoods on campus, but they didn't survive transplanting during a recent construction project.

Great shots...background is very smooth...transition to it is nice....only thing is i think it could use a tad more saturation (but hard for me to say as I don't know what they looked like in person....but i think it needs a bit more to help it really pop)
