Macro Pics



So here are my pictures this week being that we are supposed to have a frost tonight I had to do a bit of harvesting so I used the peppers for the pictures I was going to take the pictures while they were on the plant still cause I thought the added texture would be really neat but it was a bit harder than I expected because some of the pods were just deep enough in the plant they were hard to see plus it was cold out so I just picked them and brought them home were I could turn on the heat.

My wild articholes
























Here are my two pictures one is taken standing about 6 feet over the tops of these artichoke plants the other is looking up from under the plants. They are two very different pictures of the same plant. the first picture shows the beauty of the plant and all it color and grace (it was really windy)you can see the textural difference between the flower pedals and the surrounding foliage. The other picture shows the lack of grace and beauty that the structural support of these massive flowers have. Also i notice that the first picture is full of texture many different focal points and the second picture set against the blue sky gives it an almost two dimensional feel there is no real depth to the picture.
