Wintertime Roses
The textures of the dried petals on this pair of dead roses were extremely inviting to photograph. I used the longest lens in my bag to throw the background completely out of focus and create the silky smooth bokeh.
Canon 30D, Canon 70-200 f/4L lens with 1.4 extender – 1/200 second, f/5.6, ISO 400

I love this photo. The muted colors and lifeless petals are very pretty in a poignant way.

I feel like this in the wintertime! Dry, wilted, and frostbitten! I am so looking forward to spring and the new life it brings.
