Pretty Yellow Swamp Buttercup Wildflower


Taking photos of flowers is something I love to do. I have a Macro lens which helps me capture great photos. The trick to flower shots is using a tripod, getting really low to the ground sometimes, and not having any wind. You can also get some great images after a rain, like I did with this Swamp Buttercup wildflower I found this Spring. It was a light drizzle in the park, so the trees gave me some good shelter. This Minnesota wildflower likes it wet so it can be found around streams, waterfalls, and swampy areas.
