2005 Nature's Best Awards Competition

Thistle with Ensemble
by Gary Luhm
(Plant Life Category)

I always marvel at the explosion of color that comes from shooting though flowers with a big lens.  And small adjustments of the camera position mean big changes in the viewfinder.  Shot wide open along Hurricane Ridge Rd., Olympic National Park, Washington.

Canon E-3; Canon 500mm f/4 w1.4 tele-extender at f5.6; shutter speed unrecorded. Fuji Velvia; mirror lock w/2 sec time delay; tripod
