A Mini-Landscape. I shot this naturally occurring hybrid Pitcher Plant in a bog not far from my house in northwest Florida. It took several years for the perfect conditions, but my patience was finally rewarded. It was a bit windy so I raised ISO a bit to be able to shoot @ 1/2000 to minimize any motion. ![_1FX6892 - Green Top Pitcher Plant - C1 - 1100](https://images.naturephotographers.network/original/3X/9/3/93b4ecf7bec431f67321e09507272fd3dab80fd9.jpeg) ### What technical feedback would you like if any?

Really like this shot, Bill. You patience really did pay off, especially to capture these in such stunning light. I really like the sharpness on the main Pitcher Plant and the DOF. Nothing like that up here in Ontario. We’re just starting our warmer spring weather.
