Cherry Blossoms of Balboa Park
I took these photos in the wonderfully huge Balboa Park in the Valley North of Los Angeles. Sadly Balboa Park along with the Sepulveda Wildlife Reserve is pretty much the one of the only beautiful things about "the valley." The types of Cherry Blossoms (Sakura) seem to be from Okinawa decent, but correct me if I am wrong. I used the Nikon D200, Gitzo Carbon Fiber Monopod mounted with a Really Right Stuff BH-25 LR Ball head and the following lenses to acquire the following shots.
60mm f/2.8D AF Micro-Nikkor
200mm f/4D ED-IF AF Micro-Nikkor
