Lens: Sigma 70~300mm APO Macro Lens. Camera: Canon EOS Rebel t5. Photo Location: Neighborhood ISO: 250 Shutter Speed: 1/160s Aperture: F5.6 Focal Length 261mm, Manual Exposure Mode, No Fill Flash with CWA Metering. Quite a challenge with direct, harsh sunlight and strong wind gusts. I was lucky to capture this guy between being bounced around in the wind. Only adjustment I made was downsizing. This flower is in my neighbor's yard and so not wanting to trespass, I set everything up on the sidewalk, so I could not get that leaf in the front in out of the shot, however, probably would not have mattered being how windy it is. I forgot to remove the UV haze filter, and I am glad I did. In this instance I see it as being an asset as opposed to a liability. Hope you folks enjoy this one and thanks for viewing. TT
