As a wildlife photographer I find flowers to be a relaxing break from action. Flowers are as intricate and varied as any subject in nature, and at least they don't run or fly away just as you get them into focus! The main challenges with flowers are the wind and the proper depth of field. Individual flowers tend to look their best when separated from their background by appropriate blur, while groups of flowers need lots of depth of field. When done right, photographs of flowers can cheer your day and add some romance to your life.
SHOWY LADY'S SLIPPER
The Showy Lady's Slipper can be a common flower of boggy areas. Unfortunately, appropriate boggy areas are increasingly hard to find. Growing up to a meter (3 feet) in height, it is one of the most elegant and spectacular flowers of the northwoods.
