Monday I had lunch with a gal I used to work with, and even though it was a very windy day, with gusts at times we decided to visit the local park.

These Lupines I believe are a new addition to the gardens at Center Park.

This was a Samsung Galaxy S6 moment, and dealing with very windy conditions.Editing done in LR, and Photofiltre Studio.

I appreciate your comments, many thanks!~

---and dealing with very windy conditions---

I can't see no blur Sandi. If you have decreased the shutter time (if possible to e.g. 1/1000), I can't see any effect of the DOF either.

Lovely (and colorful) capture of these lupines. So well done my friend!

Don't you just hate taking pictures of things like this when they are moving all around on you? You pulled it off without a hitch. Very beautiful and very well done, Sandi.

You did well stopping the wind movement. With a little imagination, I see skyscrapers on another planet. Leave it to me, huh? Good one, Sandi.

Wow those lupines are further along than I would have imagined this early - they must love that location Sandi and another excellent galaxy moment.

Good capture in such conditions Sandi. The camera caught the color and clarity just right. You are having fun with your new toy.

Lupines used to be very common even as wild weeds when I was a child. Now one has to visit botanical garden or specialised agricultural institution to see and admire them...
Good anyway that they are still there on this earth unlike other species.

My mother liked Lupines, although we don't get them down here. Nice shot.

Bring some fine thread or fishing line with you to tie things down so they don't sway in the wind. For larger, sturdier objects you might want to opt for a hammer, nails and a board or two. Beautiful colours in the blooms and a lovely capture of the scene, Sandi.
