CYMBIDIUM ORCHID, CHICAGO BOTANIC GARDEN, GLENCOE, ILLINOIS, FEBRUARY 22, 2015
Pentax K-3
Tamron 90mm f2.8 macro
1/1600 sec. f11
ISO 1600
This portrait of an orchid opening its petals was the best shot from an hour wandering around the Orchid Show at the Chicago Botanic Garden this morning. I used a high ISO for a shutter speed fast enough and a f/stop small enough to get a sharp photo in iffy light. Tripods and monopods aren't allowed because of the crowds. (The Garden does permit them at the fair on more lightly attended Wednesdays, however.)
