Purty Flowers

I am so behind, I still haven't posted my favorites from our trip to Idaho.  On the trip, I tried to learn how to manually adjust the settings on our camera to take pictures that looked the way I wanted them to.  I made some progress with these macro photos.  Click on the photo to see a higher resolution version.  This first one is intentionally focused on the leaves, and not the flower.
