20-June-2000 Flowers

I shot some flowers in evening light, in the medicinal gardens at the Bakken Library & Museum, and then in the back yard. These were all shot with an Epson 850Z digital camera, with no lens attachments or external light modifiers or anything.

More to come soon, I hope.

This is a relatively old type of rose, that nobody so far has been able to identify with any more specificity. The bud is a nice creamy pink, but when the flower opens the petals are white. I guess inkjet printers aren't the only things that have trouble with color stability!
