Skagit Valley Nature: Playing with depth of field.

Here I was shooting Asian pear/apple blossoms. Working on depth of field, thus close and clear shots of the blossoms. Then shot thru the tree to capture Kathy's apple tree. Finally I wanted to get a clear exposure of the dandelions in the lawn. Fun exercise. I'm working my way thru Understanding Exposure, by Brian Peterson. Thanks Chels and Jade for the recommendation. I'm proud to say that I did these pictures all on the manual setting. Yes, I'm patting myself on the back, because I never thought I'd get off the auto settings.
