Passion Flower

Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Found this beautiful flower resting in the Orchid Garden. Couldn't resist taking a shot of this. I tried a macro shot using the Sigma lens. It turned out not too bad. Due to the shape of this flower the DOF is a bit compromised in certain angles. Overall I am satisfied with the result.

Nikon D80 ,Sigma 18-50mm F2.8 EX DC MACRO
1/100s f/2.8 at 46.0mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto
