And that is exactly the effect I was going for! I really had to move the camera around to get there. So glad you like it!

I usually do my farmer's market photos twice a week as I cover 2 venues. Tuesday and Thursday!

Feel free to come by and enjoy!

are beautiful. At the Huntington Botanical Gardens they have a row of Agapanthus near a huge oak tree where lots of hummingbirds hang out.

I love the Agapanthus, esp. when they're first opening. So much mystery and beauty! I'll bet the ones at the Huntington are phenomenal.

I especially like the first one and the third one. And the far away shot se we can see what the market looks like. Nice detail and cropping in every one!

Those sandwiches … oh my…..

You always have something wonderful to say.

I really wanted to capture the just-opening flowers today. I love getting close-ups!

And yes, I hear you about the sandwiches! Haven't tried them, but we get the quiche every week; my husband cuts them into thirds for our breakfast. They make a great meal, along with the weekly berries.
