On that same sunflower. Getting this photo was harder than I expected....
Now the pace of the sunflower pix will slow. But we may be watching it decay until April.

Since everyone liked the bee photo so well, I thought I'd post another....

Since I'm using the macro lens for my black & whites this month, I figured I'd take it out into the garden.

I'd thought the Spiderwort were (was?) done blooming, but Saturday they'd reopened. This bee was helping me check them out.

Every camera's a compromise, but some are more compromised than others....
While I understand the impulses that drive SOOC shooters , I don't share them. I routinely underexpose photographs, then boost their lighting during post-processing. I usually push the saturation, and virtually always apply an Unsharp Mask. And I'm certainly not shy about changing the framing with a crop tool.
On the other hand, you can push things too far, and this photo is about at that limit. I've cropped this one pretty severely, and when you start with a 5 megabyte photo you've not a lot of maneuver room. And while the colors are fairly true, the photo's glossy tone's an artifact of the crop and related processing.
Compare this similar photo , also cropped, taken a few hours later with my Nikon 1.
==========
The compromises aren't consistent. Unlike most digital pocket cameras, the Olympus C-50 has a viewfinder, making it essentially a small rangefinder camera. I'd rarely try for this photograph with the Fujis or the Sony because following a bee from flower to flower is difficult when you're holding the camera at arm's length. It's easier through a viewfinder.
But this photo is really a job for an SLR. So, as noted above, I tried again later with the V1 (which, of course, is not an SLR).
This day's fairly large 366 Snap set consisted mostly of photographs the camera's not really designed to take well--bad light, difficult angles, moving targets. I was experimenting with the device's limits.

This photograph is an outtake from my 2012 photo-a-day project, 366 Snaps .
Number of project photos taken: 66
Title of " roll :" V1 Camera - Horrocks [a bit misleading, that title; they're mostly yard and garage pix. Horrocks is our garden store.]
Other photos taken on 6/7/2012: The Daily Flower Census seems to have included all of the garden beds, and a bunch of birds. ( Including this one , whose title I'm quite proud of.) Late in the day I was photographing a hummingbird.
