Big plant John, and good shots.

A few days after the New Year, I went to a friend's home to show he
and his wife the basics of making macro-photographs of flowers. He
has a studio out of which he does weddings and portraiture, but he
had never this type of "still life" before. Mostly, his wife wants
to do some artistic work. The benefit was being able to play with
his studio lights again and I struck a deal that whatever I shot
could be used in exhibition. :-)
Took the OM-1n which still had a half-roll of Portra 400NC in it
(would have liked to use 160NC but didn't have any), the extension
tubes, and the 50/1.4, 85/2, 135/2.8 and 200/4 lenses. Turn out the
flower his wife wanted to photograph is and amaryllis in full bloom.
These was not the small house plant I was expecting; it stands
almost 3 feet tall! [My other half's idea of house plants are
African violets.]
