>Finally I have a speck of advice, if you have a
conservatory anywhere near you and have any interest
in macro photos or just want to go somewhere to relax
you should vist. The place smells great and is a
rainbow of colors.<
Mark is so right! I have spent hours and many many rolls of film in the
Botanical Garden at San Diego's Balboa Park. As you walk through the
building the light is always changing. Blooms that were in shadow on one
round are suddenly highlighted by brilliant sunlight. Back lighting is
wonderful! I use a light weight tripod and either my 50/3.5 or 80/2. I am
also going to use my 300/4.5 when the garden reopens.
The Botanical Garden is being refurbished and has been closed for several
months. I hope it will re-open soon. I get great relaxation from going
there.
