Very nice flower studies Marcell, I really like the dof control, just about every part of every flower is in focus, nice work.

Lovely bright, spring feel to those flowers Dennis -I especially like that real close-up one in #3.

Those are bright and cheerful Dennis, I like the dof control in #1 and the closup is good too as sometimes yellow on yellow is difficult to get contrast and edge definition with.

From our front yard. Today has been a beautiful sunny day in Northern California, USA. These are with a Kiron 80-200 lens on A900 with MD/MA glass adapter.

Great to see you back Sury - and great to see some of that California colour as well :D . I especially like the last one.

Great shots DennisG and Sury! We don't have too many flowers in our yard yet, but the patch of Bluebonnets by the road have sprouted up again, so I took my camera out tonight. Shot with a700 and 70-200G. John

Thank you. Here is one with Vivitar90 from couple of days ago. I cropped it a bit. I wonder if the background is distracting or adding.

Fabulous colours John - I like the bokeh from the 70-200 :)

Nice yellow flower there Sury, shows what a bargain that Vivitar is. Personally I generally like the background out of focus - but that's just me :) I also like the colours of the subject flower echoed in the background, just as John has shown so beautifully above - a great effect.
