Took these without stepping more than 10 feet away from my car, as I was packing Alf up after a quick walk to check on the peonies at Ward Meade gardens.

Some of my first floral photos with the new-to-me D500, too. I love the 80-200mm and it’s nice having a camera my 16mm D lens will auto focus with, and the colors are absolutely gorgeous.
