And now for something completely different – a Lotus Blossom

I don’t think much needs said – it’s a lotus blossom at peak season, with full and unbuttered leaves.

And now for something completely different… a panda

I took the Tele-Rolleiflex with me to the zoo the other weekend. I didn’t know quite what I would be able to get good shots of and not, but I tried anyway. The one animal I could get close enough to get a good shot of while still outdoors in good light was, fortuitously enough, the Giant Panda – I think this one is Tian Tian, the male panda.
