It's
been a little over a decade since I first explored the combination of
macro and flowers as a subject; in many ways, i can say I've "been there
and done that", but the simple joy of making a clean, simple macro
photograph of a flower seldom fails to please.

One
of the most pleasureable elements of working with a 150mm macro lens is
how beautifully it issolates subjects from their surroundings.

Sometimes
the hardest thing to photograph is one thing in exclusion; in this
case, the hosta presented a rich subject to explore, but the challenge
of how to frame, and what to include and exclude made it frustrating at
the same time. In the end, I went for a balance between "the big
picture" and an abstract detail.
