Messing around in one of the flower beds and it turned into a mini photo-op. C&C always more than welcome.

    I like both of these alot, Thusie. What lens were you using for these? Unusual looking plants make for interesting shots. clap.gif

    Thanks Saurora. After much thought I bought the EF-S 60mm macro, which I love and have found to be very versatile inside and out.

    Nice Thusie,way to keep your eyes open..I would have used a smaller apeture on the second. I think in this case the DOF is too shallow otherwise I like the soft colors.
