Flower shots
The second one is less because you crop off a flower and everything is boring sharp.
K20D and various stuff.

PS These were all with the Tamron 17-50, and that red leaf in the first shot is about 6 inches wide.
Tim I love it, don't pay for these things and photograph them at home, just go to a garden centre and do it on the free
The garden centre is certainly a good destination, partly because their plants are in such great condition and there's no wind! However when you have a toddler it enters a whole new dimension - the garden centre becomes a day out!!! You can spend hours looking at the flowers, fish, rabbits, parrots, and even have lunch in the restaurant! I've yet to try a full-on meal at the restuarant, it seems a bit weird to go to a garden centre for lunch, but apparently it's very good. I've even seen queues to get into it!

Come to think of it I've had the meatballs a few times and they aren't half bad. Maybe I'll try the garden centre

It is an illusion that photos are made with the camera they are made with the eye, heart and head. Henri Cartier-Bresson
Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

This wouldn't happen to be a garden centre in Great Amwell would it?
Anyway, looks like they need to sell food because you aren't buying their flowers!

I love the second one of the Orchid. We have the same variety in flower at the moment. Well taken.
