Molten pit surounded by sticky stamen
Friday, May 30th, 2008
Pasadena, California. The Huntington Garden. Can you imagine falling into this molten pit, struggling to get out only to find that you can’t get a grip on these pollen encrusted stamen. What a way to go.
I think I could go out and buy every lens in the book, and I still couldn’t get pictures like this. Stunning.
Ernie: This was shot with my least expensive lens, the Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 macro. It’s a wonderful lens, fragile but killer optics. It’s even better when used on a tripod but I didn’t have one on this trip. Thanks for the compliment.
Simply brilliant Richard. A gorgeous world to get lost in. Remarkable.
Thanks Scott, it’s fun to check this world out, let me tell you.
