Thanks Rod, Cat, Penny, Brent, Jano, and CJ. I love the color of these flowers, but that made it kind of hard to get all the zones in. Rod, I couldn't go any brighter on the front flower, which is a medium pink, without losing the details in the petals. Yes, I do like this lens, Brent, although I'm sometimes frustrated by not being able to get closer to the subject. I've been thinking of getting a 100mm macro. I've noticed a number of folks getting nice results with it.

Very nice Mary Anne! I too like the repetition of the flower, and the exposure and conversion look great! :-) CJ

I also think the second flower really rounds out this nicely. This is really a great photo Mary Anne. jano

Very well done Mary Anne, really like the comp with that second flower which really adds a lot to the image. Sweet little lens for the price, eh?

This is beautiful and wonderful! An unique composition with repetition not only with the shapes, but the zones too. Works fine for me!

Excellent composition I really like the look of this, well done Mary Anne. On my monitor the white petals on the top flower could go lighter for that Ansel pop.
