A very ripe Welsh poppy
by davidwozhere
The point of this one is mainly that it was taken with a Sigma 70-300mm at 300mm. The result is quite amazing
The day previous there was no brown around the stamens at all. Today (a day later) the petals were falling off

No doubt about it, it's a pig to get used to, which is why I was surprised here -- it IS on a tripod!
As to Welsh poppies, I always collect the ripe seedpods and I scatter the seeds all over the place

Nice one, David.
In the right hands these zoom lenses CAN produce good results.
Best regards
Peter

Thank you Peter. Let's change that to, "with the right selection of bad language". (It's a Sigma after all).
