Mother’s Day Macro Photography
Happy Mother’s Day, all you moms out there! And Happy Mother’s Day to you, Mom (when you read this). I didn’t spend time with Mom today because my Sister kidnapped her and forced her to go down to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. What a bummer for her.
Instead of spending time with Mom, I spent the afternoon photogging at The Huntington, where I’m an annual member. I brought along my Canon 40D with just my 100mm lens so I could concentrate on improving my macro photography skills.
I shouldn’t have been surprised by how crowded it was at The Huntington, but I was. I had never seen it so packed! I had to circle the lot for ten minutes before finding a parking spot (which is about how long it takes me to drive to The Huntington from my apartment). Many people parked outside of the main gates and walked the quarter mile into the property.
Anyway, here are some photos:

I’m going to try to get into the habit of adding a watermark to all of my photos. I’ve been reading too many stories about photographers finding their work on commercial sites that didn’t ask permission nor provide compensation. If YOU would like to use my photos on your site, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
