It’s the last of the Bluebonnets. Most of the Texas Bluebonnets growing in central Texas have gone to seed. I captured this specimen at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center earlier this spring. Unfortunately, I have not been able to get out more often to photograph more Texas Wildflowers. I need to make a point to do so soon before summer settles in and the heat makes it impossible to go out for any length of time.<\/p>\n

Last of the Bluebonnets<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This image was taken with my\u00a0Canon EOS 6D Mark II<\/a>\u00a0using my\u00a0Canon EF 100mm f\/2.8L Macro Lens<\/a>. The camera was set on Manual\u00a0mode with the aperture set at f\/4, shutter speed at 1\/80th of a second and the ISO set at 100. I used a tripod for stability and my\u00a0Kirk Focusing Rail<\/a>\u00a0to obtain 8 images which I brought together into one image using Photoshop and\u00a0the focus stacking technique. I then finalized the image in Photoshop.<\/p>\n
