Taken at the Lamberton Conservatory, Highland Park, Rochester, NY. Canon Rebel T2i/Canon 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM
During a cold February day, the Conservatory is a great place to get a slice of warmth while being surrounded by greenery. In one of my first forays with my macro lens I ran across this beautiful orchid, almost hidden amongst the many hibiscus and other flowers. I find the colors in this photo very soothing.
While I mainly focus on landscape and wildlife photography, I enjoy taking flower photos at the Conservatory because of the perceived lack of pressure. To get certain landscape shots you need to be at X place at a certain time and with wildlife you need to be ready at a moments notice to get the photo. But photographing flowers requires neither. You can take your time to set up the photo you want and your subject isn't really going anywhere.
