Probably the last of my hydrangeas for the season. Weird thing about this is that in the summer the flowers on this bush were a beautiful blue and now they are very pink. I liked the blue much better. Nikon D750 50mm lens.

Hydrangea Nikon D80. I want to buy a macro lens but for now I am just playing with close up filters on my older Nikon. Not getting the nice blur I would like with this lens and the filter but it is a start.

Dried hydrangea dining room window sill. Nikon D750 50mm lens. Seems I am taking much lighter pics in the summer but I still love the dark and moody work.
