Title: Day lily nursery shoot
Post by: gjtoth on June 23, 2010, 12:42:42 AM
An acquaintance of mine invited me to shoot her day lily nursery.  Temps were in the mid-90s, sky=bright, overcast and a little breezy.  And it was freakin' HUMID!  She had a great variety and all well-kept and labeled.  I used the Oly with the 135mm and the Fuji.  These are a mix of both.   Out of about 300 shots, I wound up with 78 keepers. 

Here's a slide show for all of 'em   http://tinyurl.com/2v3nr2s

She had TONS more, Judy.  It was so hot and humid that I had to cut the session short.  I was drenched in sweat.

A day without learning something is a wasted day.   I learned something today!  Thank you.  They are beautiful!
