Up close

I had a little fun with my macro lens today. I'm still figuring out how to use it, but I think I got some good captures. We have a handful of irises around the yard that gave me some nice results in the sunshine. Keeping them still in the wind was the real challenge. I tried to get the chickens to cooperate too, but you can imagine how well that went.
A couple of wide shots of the irises:


And a few up close:





And, from the garden, a strawberry in the making. It won't be long before we are enjoying these!
