Thank you my dear Douglas. I don't deserve such a gift.I don't know the gear you've used (Mark would have helped I'm sure), but it is second to the wonderful feeling I have when viewing these suggestions of flowers - just like in erotism, flowers sometimes benefit from not being unmasked into the too crude light of realism - and this you've perfectly achieved here. Kudos ! The Broom flowers look like octopuses, superb!
Thanks for the incipit, and for sharing these beauties.(I have glycina coming too, and went in a rush tonight for a reshoot following Steve's suggestion, to be developed later in the week, probably)

The long weekend was booked solid with visiting friends and too much excellent food, so the Friday flowers were shot about a couple of hours ago. :-)A couple of fuzzy ones for Philippe - partly moved by the breeze, partly infinitesimal DOF.Technical stuff: Canon 20D, LTM to EOS adapter, Steinheil Cassarit 2.8/45mm, Canon LTM 1.4/50mmhttp://gallery.leica-users.org/v/DMS/New-Old-Pictures/album150/11_MG_9467.jpg.html (Fuzzy - Cassarit wide open)http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/DMS/New-Old-Pictures/album150/22_MG_9469.jpg.html (Un-fuzzy -Cassarit at f8)http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/DMS/New-Old-Pictures/album150/33_MG_9472.jpg.html (Glycinia - Canon 1.4/50)http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/DMS/New-Old-Pictures/album150/41_MG_9474.jpg.html (Glycinia - Canon 1.4/50 at f1.4)http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/DMS/New-Old-Pictures/album150/52_MG_9475.jpg.html (Flowering broom - fuzzy in the breeze)http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/DMS/New-Old-Pictures/album150/63_MG_9476.jpg.html (Flowering broom - fuzzy in the background)http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/DMS/New-Old-Pictures/album150/74_MG_9478.jpg.html (White Bleeding Heart)http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/DMS/New-Old-Pictures/album150/85_MG_9481.jpg.html (Small, vivid and reasonably fuzzy)BTW, the Steinheil Cassarit is for a Braun Paxette, it is LTM, but it has a different register in comparison with other typical LTM lenses.Hope you like them Douglas
