Butterfly Stone Crop

_8310121-1

Today a headshot of ‘Butterfly Stone Crop’ blossoms. This plant is called in Austria also ‘Fette Henne’. It’s rather modest and unremarkable green during the year, but at the end of summer it starts blooming and transforms from the ‘ugly duckling’ into a ‘white swan’!

By the way, it’s also very attractive to bees and butterflies. Today I counted 15 bees on just one plant ;)

Enjoy, Andrew >:o)

Pink Bunny

Snapped this ‘Pink Bunny’ near Vienna State Opera. It’s dimension is about one and a half meter from leg to ear so we’re talking about a really big bunny here ;)

For the curious: It’s a giant sized sculpture of the famous Albrecht Dürer painting that has been on display until 29 June at Albertina as part of the exhibition “Dürer, Michelangelo, Rubens”. The bunny will be put up to auction later so you’ve a chance to get him for your apartment ;)

Regards, Andrew >:)

Back again :)

As you may noticed it got silent over the last four weeks on lensblues.com. I’ve been too busy walking the camera so I couldn’t get usable material. But the good news is – I’m back again  ;)

Lets start with some more macro-work. I think I got a usable macro-setup including the Olympus flash now. I’ll do some more testing and will post the information here some time soon.

Enjoy it, Andrew >:)
