July Flowers in the Neighborhood

I received a new Nikkor Z MC 105 f/2.8 last Friday. So I was curious to try it on my Nikon Z6 camera this morning. Here are some samples that I took with it of flowers in the neighborhood. For me, it seems to have great detail, nice color rendition, and good bokeh. The flowers include African lilies, society garlic, marigolds, day lily, and roses. Happy Fourth of July! Nature also puts on colorful fireworks too I believe.

While on a early morning walk, I took fifteen photos of the flowers I observed along the way. The blooms look stunning in the golden hour following sunrise.

Mini Roses

I took a few pictures of the miniature roses that I have on the balcony and porch. They’re small maybe but cute. Enjoy the Summer Solstice coming Thursday June 21, 2018.

Saturday while driving around Suisun Valley Region, I took these pictures of roses, poppies and other wildflowers. I used a Nikon D300s with a Nikkor 60 mm micro lens and a 50 mm 1.8 lens. A beautiful spring day in the valley! Great scenery for a picnic too.
