Please flood away Sury :D .

Beautiful rose picture wwind_chan_200 - it looks like you could pluck the bloom from the screen :shock: . Great colour and detail. Congratulations on the A850 as well :) .

Just a suggestion Sury, looks to me that you press the URL-button before you paste the Flickr-image code, you don't need to do that :)
The formatting will be much prettier if you don't.

Thank you Zeb. That seem to work only if attach single photo. For multiple photos I need to use URL. Any suggestions?
Anyway, Here are few examples using Sigma28-200 in macro mode on A900 at f36
and HVL58. I discovered the F36 quite accidentally, (shows my ignorance :) ) and had a great time with it. Would I have gotten better shots on A700?

With best regards,
Sury

Wow Sury - that is a small aperture :shock: . I especially like the first purple flower. I am always worried about going much over f11. I suppose better lenses and full frame gives you more leeway? Not much evidence of diffraction blur in that purple shot.

Don't normall take many flower shots, here is one, I think it might have been better from a different angle, but the flower was over 9Ft high so this was the best I could do, no idea what the plant is :)

Wow Steve - nice shot. I'm betting 'giganticus' is in its Latin name :D .
