This morning I was up early. Even though I had a great deal of writing and office work to do, I couldn’t resist photographing this beautiful day lily while Phyllis got the kids to school. This was a three second exposure at f/36 with my 200mm f/4 telephoto macro. Fortunately, the wind paused for me as I took the picture, and Phyllis came back with a warm caramel macchiato for me, bless her.
