Douglas I enjoyed the selection too. Fair to say that there was a benchmark set for Calla lilies a little while back. Really like trying to come up with a better photograph of THAT Pepper or something ;-) Cheers Geoff http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman/e http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/gh/ -----Original Message----- From: leica-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:leica-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Douglas Sharp Sent: Tuesday, 1 July 2008 16:34 To: leica@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: A slightly different look at flowers Hi, David, I think you're right, there may be a little too much blur on the ethereal shot. My personal favourites are the Yellow Lily with the Victoria Regina and the natural Calla. Best from Hannover - the weather forecast says 33 degrees (Centigrade) for this afternoon, I think I'll take my laptop and work on the patio.
