i think the depth of field is very good and it looks sharp. the colors are vibrant and the composition is nice.

is this the full image or have you cropped?

Very nice ems.The only thing that is distracting is out of focus area just above centre.

Still a lovely image though

Sharp and good color. You must have been REAL close with that 50.

If you don't mind manual focus, the Tamron 90/2.5 is a good lens.

The 50mm macro?

It was just your comment "very difficult with 50mm to get full flower i been practicing but really want the 90mm or 100mm macro", and wasn't sure if you were using a non-macro 50mm or a macro one.

Without (hopefully) sounding rude, what do you expect a 100mm lens to do that your 50mm can't, so that you could get the 'full flower'?
