Many thanks for all your kind comments.

I was fascinated by the colouring of this flower and also very pleased with how the Sigma 18-250mm has captured the fine detail.

Thanks again
Peter

Many thanks, Stan.

I'm getting a bit lazy in my old age as I'm finding this K70 + Sigma 18-250 a versatile combination.

Best regards
Peter
