Macro photography of peonies

I set up a photographic arrangement inside with access to ambient sunlight, using both black and white screens for background.  This was one way to avoid the heavy winds this week that prevented outside photography.  I used a 60mm macro lens on my Canon Rebel camera. Let me know what you think of this approach.

Cornell Plantations

The Cornell Plantations includes many acres on campus and includes the gorges, the arboretum, the botanical garden, the wildflower garden, and several other sites. It is a wonderful place to wander and take pictures all during the year. I just took a walk this afternoon and photographed several plants in the gardens. This was with the macro lens that I am still getting used to.
