Spring Fever, Cabin Fever, Shack Nasties - whatever you want to call it, it's hitting hard here. Most of my shooting involves getting outside and walking, but I just can't bring myself to go out when it is at best 20 degrees with a 20+ mph wind. So I started wandering the house looking for things to shoot here.
I found a flower from my daughter's birthday sitting on the table in some nice sunlight. To get the angle I wanted for this shot, I ended up standing on my toes on a chair to get high enough with my head against the ceiling to keep me from wobbling all over (was using 300 mm lens with minimum focus distance of 4.9 ft). I must have been a sight. That macro lens I want sure would have made it easier.
Anyway, here's what I came up with (and as always, comments welcome):

Looks like tomorrow might finally allow a little time outside without freezing my face off. Cold is cold, but wind......
