Subject: PESO: Forsythia

After Rick W's great image showing how beautiful Forsythia can be
(Tree Hugger PESO), I decided I had to try again to get a decent shot
of mine.  It is not as effective as Rick's, but probably the best I
have been able to get of this very difficult shrub to capture:

K-5 IIs, FA 100 mm Macro F2.9
Comments are invited and appreciated.

I planted this particulat specimen two years ago.  Last year it was
rather weak, but it is coming along much better now.  I hope that it
will be much showier next year.

This has been a tough year for photographing flowers in my yard.  The
past 4 weeks have seen freezing weather, heavy rain, snow flurries and
haigh winds.  The blossoms on my Magnolias withered in a few days, and
turned brown and limp very quickly.  The winds tood a lot of the
flowers from my forsythia that were more out in the open.  Even the
daffodils and hyacinths have suffered from the poor weather, and are
not up to the standards of the past few years.

Oh, well, that is what one should expect in the Northeast US, I guess.
