Wow, what a tricky subject, manual focus with 645 and 120mm macro with a decent crop as well

I think with some more practise I can improve on these,

The first shot for me, with a little tidying up. i.e just losing the OOF blob on the left and a crop to centralise perhaps

Wow, that's really close and excellent detail.

Not sure how these were processed but I really like those muted colours.
Thanks David, apart from a small levels tweak, pretty much straight from the camera, the multi coloured background is a 20 year old floor tile I found in the shed.

Thanks Steve

I preferred the black bg version of the same flower but its a personal choice

I've taken to roaming the streets looking for suitable victims, all these found within 100m of home then a variety of tiles for the BG all with natural light. All picked from the kerbside or verge

LOL must have been the hamster that tipped the balance then

I do have a 645 FA 150mm F2.8 I'd be open to sell, wouldn't be interested in a swap as I already have a 45 - 85.

Mint condition and boxed, SRS have them on a deal at the mo at £899 instead of the usual £1200, so I'll end up taking a bit of a hit, so the lowest price I'd accept would be £775 inc RMSD

[/quote]I wondered about padded shorts but thought it would look as if I was wearing incontinence pads.[/quote]I wear mine under my jeans at the mo, when its warmer, will probably wear a pair of normal shorts over the top of the padded shorts.
