[Chris Dodkin]

It's late here as well, but at least it's happening!

X-Pro1 and 35mm Lens in 'Macro' mode.

I like that Chris, it reminds me of those small coloured windmills the kids used to have.

 

[Glenn Clabo]

Love the soft colors...

 

[Rob MacKillop]

That's definitely happening! Beautiful.

lol, that was my thought too, the way those petals curve instead of going straight out..

lovely as always chris, but i thought you had perpetual spring out there?

That is a great photo Chris!! I saw some of those blooming on the nature trails this Sunday. I took a few photos. Mine paled in comparison. Great composition. What F stop did you use?

Thanks Steve - this one was at f/2.8, although on review I think f/4 might have been a better choice to get more of the stem in focus

Looks like one of Peters shots that, I like it!

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Thanks Hamish

Lovely image, Chris.If not for a shot like this how often would we stop and look closely enough to notice that little 5 point star in the center. Really nice.

Thanks Brian - is was a nice distraction from yard work - which got me scathing glances from swmbo when she saw me holding a camera, and not a broom!

While I certainly don't want to speak for Brian, if I had known that this photo was due to sheer wanton and callous dereliction of your lawn work duties, I certainly would have been less effusive in my praise.

 

[Chris Dodkin]

What can I say - I'm a slacker!

 

[Paul Lange]

Nice photo and worth the chance of beating with the aforementioned broom I say!
