Jul12-B - 09A_3696_Stokesia.jpg
Here is a short macro of a Stokesia, aka Stokes Aster or cornflower.
This sample is the generic species and one of my perennials grown from seed. There are hybrids (such as 'Blue Danube', which I also have) that are more of a baby-blue color than the lavender of the species shown here, but I kind of prefer the shade of the natural variety. This shot was taken with a 12mm extension tube on my 50mm lens. The actual size of the flower is probably 2-2.5-in. Canon 1DmkIII; EF50mm f1.4; ISO-400; f16; 1/640-sec; -1/3ev; with 12mm extension-tube. e-mail: blissful-wind(at)usa.net Additional images at; http://www.flickr.com/photos/john-pa/ |
