You're having fun with that lens. These are a good bunch from a great time of year for macro shots of flowers. I really like the banksia shot since it's so different - not how I think of a banksia as looking and the colour tonality works really well.

Thanks...
You were not the only one that liked Banksias..

Unfortutely very heavily cropped

The only way I could shoot this guy (due to the heavy backlight) was to blow him away with flash on full (LSII removed)

Even heavily cropped the bird shot is one to be proud of. I for one am glad you posted it.

Great shots but the banksia does it for me. Excellent!
