Don,


The Minho Valentine is one of the most beautifully composed flower shots I've ever seen. Congratulations, truly beautiful.

[Don Burkett]

Thank you Stefan.


I have a Flora Gallery set up at www.pbase.com/dbrasco if you're interested.


I basically learned photography basics through shooting flowers. While I'm not expert, you can see you can see whatever progress I've made through the shots on that site.

Here's a few more...I know I've got a lot to learn but it sure is fun so far. Thanks for all the help...

I found the following flowers in my backyard a while ago





EF-S 60mm 1/125s f/4





EF-S 60mm1/200 f/5





EF-S 60mm 1/100 f/3.5





The 60mm EF-S has been really good, although it doesn't have the reach for further away objects


I really like Don and Flish's flower photos - the colours are great, although Flish' first set seems a little underexposed
