I shot this at the local botanical garden. When I first started shooting there, I reached the limit when I ran out of memory or battery power. I have a different camera, & now I am older, so the limit now is my strength. It is very hot (for me) & I find now that I am unable to complete the whole lily garden before I am unable to concentrate properly on getting my shot. I do what I can. This is from a session in the later afternoon, when the lily garden is in the shade. I can see my camera display better in the shade & concentrate better without being baked by the sun. I had a ND filter & a circular polarizer on the lens, which filtered the light enough to get this blurred shot of a lily.
