Botanical Gardens

In order to get some more pictures for my portfolio of nature, Tony and I are going to the Botanical gardens in Birmingham to get up close and personal with some flowers and plants.

I intend to take my tripod and a full set of lenses to ensure that I can take a stable set of images. If at all possible I am going to see if I an get hold of either a macro lense to borrow, or some lense magnifiers. in addition, it is useful to photograph flowers with a little dampness on them, so I will take a water spray gun to create that 'dewey' feeling.

Whilst I already have many pictures of flowers, leaves, and pictures in general, I am looking to see if I can get some really close up images, using wide apertures to really blow out the backgrounds.

    As stated I hoped this visit would help you to add value to your theme and extend the amount of images to help the final selection of images to be of a high professional level.
