It was beautiful out this morning. The temperature was around 40 degrees. Light rain and fog permeated the setting.
I was checking out a zoom lens I own, the Nikkor 24-200mm F4-6.3 Zoom. I rarely use a zoom lens and need to decide whether to keep it or sell it.
Himalayan Blackberry (Rubus armeniacus)
Orange Honeysuckle (Lonicera ciliosa) climbing up a Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii).
Red Alder leaf (Alnus rubra)
It was very dark, so I had to shoot the images at ISO 3200. At 200mm, the minimum distance of the lens to the subject is 2.3 feet (.7 Meter).
Western Red Cedar (Thuja plicata).
