I have been tidying up a folder of Flower Photography so I am going to bore you all (with the possible exception of Adrian who self-admittedly likes flowers) with a few floral exhibits; not too many, I promise!

Perhaps by way of a start I will set a question. I was experimenting with differential focusing on a particular subject so which one of the following two images do you prefer?

Let us call this one No. 1....

Let us call this one No. 2....

Thank you!

On the same day I got some lovely shots of some horses in a field and, would you believe, their owner came across from his house and asked me would I like to take some photos from his stables! I only had my brand new zoom lens with me that day so I had to make do with that.....Don't worry I will post some of the images later.
