CLOSER IT IS THE BETTER IT IS.....SO GET CLOSER
A while ago Debi Boucher wrote an post "If Your Pictures Aren't Good Enough You're Not Close Enough". Debi wrote "get as close as you can to your subject". I've been thinking about what Debi had written, and decided to find a subject to try a very close up Photo.
Well Guess What.. Tulips are in the Stores and with Jane being a floral designer with a local Grocery Chain, we usually always have fresh flowers at home.(She's always buying and arranging something for our home). When I saw her arrangement of Fresh Tulips on our Dining room table today...I thought here is a subject worth trying a close photo....
Thanks for the suggestion Debi... everyone Enjoy !
HAVE YOUR BEST YEAR EVER IN 2010 !

Well ... at least your flower close-ups should have stamen power!
Fred,
I guess you have proven the point get close and you have great results.
Hi Aaron...You Might be right...Cheers
Hi Tim....And I wasn't shaking
Very nice pic! Tulips are amazingly beautiful upclose!
Fred, Great photos, I will have to get closer.
Hi Todd & Devona...Their Colours are Awesome
Hi Tony and Darcy...It seems to be the way to go :O)
I have long been fascinated by tulips. Yes, we are seeing them in the stores not too. Cool pic...
Helping you help others live their American dream...
Close, it is! Lovely. Funny, I was out practicing my closeups yesterday. Nothing like a blog to get one going.
Fred--Wow! Guess I will have to try this myself. I have read a few of Debi's posts, but I missed this one. Thanks.
Hi Michael...I guess they are coming from somewhere where it's Spring already, Like Central America?
Hi Marlene...show me yours I showed you mine :O))
Hi Mary...Grab your camera and give it a try :O))
GOOD JOB Cuz! Getting up closer is more fun, too, isn't it? LOL Thanks for the mention, Fred :)
Debi
Nice tulip close up, so in focused thanks for sharing
I can see light luminating through the petals. And your stamen is awfully sexy ;) (JUST KIDDING!)
Fred
Great picture; did you have light from behind the flower?
Hi Fred! That Debi is one smart cookie! And, what a gorgeous shot! You're so lucky to have flowers in your home all the time--I just LOVE flowers!
Have a wonderful Wednesday...
Fred - and they say close only counts in horse shoes .... but we now know different.
I love tulips and noticed them the other day in the store myself. Great photo!
Hi Debi...you are an inspiration to me and everyone here interested in getting better photo results.
Hi Caron...Thanks !
Hi Renee...:O))
Hi Tom...the light came from my flash...neat ah
Hi Debi...mmm I'll try and remember you like flowers, when is your birthday ?
Hi Kathy...It counts to someone in everything.
Hi Sharon...go get yourself a bunch.
It's true close ups can be so amazing - like your tulip!
Hi Liz...I like close ups of Birds and insects such as Humming birds and Bubble Bees..they'll be my next challenge.
