Thank you, Gumlla! Until I got a digital camera, I was too afraid to experiment and learn. Since getting my first digicam in 2001, however, I've been free to make lots of mistakes and see what works best. The two things I try to keep in mind whenever shooting are to (1) remove distracting background elements or re-position the subject, if possible and (2) get in as close to my subject as I can, so little or no cropping is needed later.

I can't believe how much the colors change on the blooms. Today, it's more pink. It's not open as much, either. Do they just last one day? *sniffle*

Here are some shots from a break between the showers:
