Lily*

Unpretentiously photographed, but when I saw it on my monitor, I kinda' liked it.
F5.6 is not really that wide, but wide open for that lens at that focal length.

Canon EOS 20D ,Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6
1/25s f/5.6 at 55.0mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Olaf,
Striking colors. I like the tight viewpoint and the detail of the pollen. I always enjoy flower macros.

Nice. Considering how shallow the DOF is at that distance, f/5.6 is wide enough. I wanted to shoot something like this for the challenge, but the only lilies I found were the tiny "Lilies of the Nile." I would have had to post a 100% crop. --Garrett
