Macro of Erigeron

I had fun this evening taking photos of this tiny daisy-like groundcover in my mom's garden with different light settings on my camera.
The Erigeron also goes by the more common names of Mexican Daisy and Fleabane, and this particular one is tiny! The flowers are about 1cm wide. I'm not actually sure where this one is the Erigeron alpinus or the Erigeron karvinskianus.

A macro of the plant with the Portrait setting

This time with the ISO 1000 setting. I like the misty look to this photo.

And again with the ISO 1000 setting.

As you can see by the rain droplets on the tiny flowers, the rainy weather has still not cleared up!
