Macros from Fullerton

[RAT]

Sitting in Salinas waiting for the customer to finish a production run. BORED! Should be in Big Bear.
Anyway, here are a few shots I took with an old macro lens I haven't used in a while. Fullerton Arboretum, July 21, 2011. Hint: Click on the pic and view it at Flikr. The resolution is WAY better.

Those are quite nice Rat. Would you mind sharing the EXIF data for these?

Nice looking macros! You been playing with the saturation?

Yes. Too much in some, but that is still a learning curve for me. I've been using those little tidbits of info you gave me last time you were here, using the histogram adjustments and all that. Makes me feel like a pro anyway...
