Another shot from my trip to the Dallas Arboretum today.

This is in response to Jiro's "Yellow Hibiscus"... Can't let you steal ALL of the flower-showing spotlight...:rofl

Although not quite as pretty as the Hibiscus I don't think, at least it's my clearest shot of the day, I think.

Shot with my Tamron lens. You can click on it for a bigger version if you feel so inclined to do that sort of thing.

    I have to agree. You definitely captured the delicate texture of the petals on the flower. Very nice! thumb.gifthumbthumb.gifthumbthumb.gifclap.gifclapclap.gif
    Sitting quietly, doing nothing. Spring comes and the grass grows by itself.

    Thanks for the comments. Shooting white in direct sunlight was a little bit of a challenge capturing any detail on it, but i got it, so yay.clap.gif
