a touch of yellow
laying on the ground shooting macros again, this large-flowered white trillium and large flower bellwort were growing side by side, and nope, the shot isnt upside down, the bellwort grows that way :)
shot this macro using a nikon diopter lens attached to a canon 75-300mm lens
thanks to tom biggs, and his buddy harold ross jr, for turning me on to this new location to shoot. this was in the smoky mountains on the north carolina side
This shot won the April Photo contest held by the Knoxville News Sentinal newspaper in Knoxville Tn
Contest titled….Spring Scene Photo Contest 2009 :)
