At 6:30am this morning, the dynamic duo (see avatar for explanation) decided it was time to get out. I picked up my camera and followed. I am just learning Light Room and getting used to my Sony a7r3 with the FE 2.8 24-70GM lens, so any criticisms, pointers, tips or other comments are appreciated.

Mike, Thanks for sharing the beautiful colorful flowers. My tip would be to crop out excessive stuff that does not relate to the beauty of the flower.

Thanks, Stan. In doing the severe cropping, this comes up against the rule of thirds. Thus, when the flower is the star, you can disregard the rule of thirds?

Yes you can. It is a guide not a must or a firm rule.

Mike.... I'm not seeing any pictures and it's taking too long to download the image. Can you repost?

Sorry, Angela. I did something wrong and I am not sure how to reduce the size of the downloads.

I, too, had trouble downloading the photos which too forever, but I saw the first two, and like them a lot!
