A few weeks after Nate came home, I still wasn’t venturing far afield. But I did buy a new macro lens, the Canon EF-S 60mm f/2.8 Macro USM. So this week I spent some time photographing the back yard. This shot is a composite formed in Helicon Focus of a penstemon flower.

Technical Data: Canon Rebel XTi; Canon EF-S 60mm f/2.8 Macro USM; f/2.8 at 1/250; ISO 200; Helicon Focus.
