‘Wild Geranium”
I guess I better post them while I have got a chance, I shot this one at Clifty Falls Sate Park a couple of days ago, this is the first shot of this lovely little flower that I have been happy with. Many times in search of this flower I have either been too late or in the wrong place, I got lucky with this one and hit it at the right time, I would have liked to have been able to get a little more dof out of this one but the wind was just strong enough to force me too shoot at a higher stop.
As of right now the woodland flowers have all but disappeared from the area and all that is left is in bad condition, it has been a pretty good year with lots of rain, but the cool weather has caused a lot of the blooms to get spots or other markings on them. I might post a couple more after this one, but if the rain continues I might be able to concentrate on the waterfalls and streams that dot our area before summer arrives and everything drys up.
I hope everyone is having a great day and thanks for stopping by and taking a look !!

About
Hello my name is Bernie Kasper and I am a photographer from Madison, a small town located in the Southeastern part of Indiana on the banks of the Ohio River, the area I call home has a rich diversity of topography and wildlife that make it a special place. From the canyons and waterfalls of Clifty Park to the wetlands of the Muscatatuck NWR the area is rich in photographic opportunities, hopefully I will be able to convey the beauty of the area and share any info as well about this place I call home

Beautiful shot! I think the DOF is just great as it is.
Beautiful. I love the way the stamens pop. They just jump out at you. The detail in the petals is good and the background very nice. An all-around winner.
That’s an excellent shot all around, Bernie! Wonderful!
Thanks guys it was a bear to get, a lot of sliding in the mud and trying to get the tripod stable but I think it turned out alright !!
excellent dof here. great composition
I still think being simplistic is the most important aspect of capturing wildflowers.. it’s also amazingly difficult in the field. You did fabulous here – the background is smooth, barely hinting at it’s environment and focusing on the stamens… classic wildflower shot. Your best? No. Visually appealing absolutely.
I love the depth of field here. Great shot!
Beautifully cyan blue colour here. Wonderful floral image
Lovely flowers !
Very nice to view different types of flowers across different parts of the world, nice bokeh and sharp photo !

You know, for some reason I always thought you were a woman, or is Bernie a girl’s name?
I’ll join the crowd Bernie. I think the DOF is perfect. Very nice image.
