Andy Perrin Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 These greater celandines have been blooming all over for the past few days. Visible reference (iPhone 6S Plus) UV: sunshine, NEX-7, Novoflex Noflexar, 330WB80 back-mounted, F5.6 5" ISO100 Visible reference (and boy did that flower wilt quickly!) UV: sunshine, NEX-7, Novoflex Noflexar, 330WB80 back-mounted, F16(?) 0.4" ISO1600 The question mark on the aperture is because my camera doesn't record it automatically, and the Noflexar has that deliberately-loose aperture ring that you're supposed to twist one way to allow focusing with more light, and then the other way to set the stop. But I always forget to twist the damn ring back! So I live in a state of perpetual uncertainty about what my aperture was, unless I'm very careful. Link to comment
colinbm Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Good work Andy, & I love the violet of the table too ;) Link to comment
Andrea B. Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Andy, yes, with all the myriad 35/3.5 aperture preset lenses we have to learn to open up then stop down. I forget sometimes too! Usually you can tell by just looking at your depth of field in the photo. You will soon get the protocol established in your head.****************************** Andy, here is a template for you. Create a new topic in Papaveraceae entitled:Chelidonium majus [Greater Celadine]: Another ExampleThen fill in the details and upload your photos. You can alter the template as desired (add captions, omit or add brackets, change bolding except for first reference line, etc) so long as the basic information is posted. I don't know what reference you are using, but the New England Wildflower Society is the best for New England. The link is below. There is also an accompanying weighty tome - Flora Novae Angliae, 2011, Haines - should you ever get into botany as a serious hobby.****************************** Perrin, A.

Andy Perrin Posted May 26, 2016 Author Share Posted May 26, 2016 colinbm, I discovered by accident that the recycle box was that gorgeous violet in UV, so it's now my favorite stage for yellow flowers. Complementary colors for the win! Andrea, thanks, I'll get to work on it. Link to comment
