Unfortunately the flowers were not all that close together and coupled with a shadow from my tripod if I got any closer, this is about as frame-filling as it got.
I could try a squarer crop rather than this 16:9

Seems to be a great lens, very sharp and fast and acurate focus on the K-7 - definitely worthy of it's reputation.
I just need to start saving for the 16-50 now

As Don says - with the frames they would look very good as poster sized prints

I should have a chance to get out and play with it at the weekend so I'll post up some results.

John - Your ADAPS book looks great. Some lovely photos and real variety.

I tend to have enlargement prints made of individual photos and then mount and frame them.
I do like the idea of books for larger collections of photos - projects or themes
I'll have to try one.

Decision made - I've now bought a second-hand DA* 50-135 from SRS.
I went into the store as they had 3 available at slightly differing prices. The one I settled on is in mint condition and also has a UV filter. Matt at SRS was extremely helpful and vey knowledgable.
I haven't had too much of a chance to play with it yet but I'm sure it will spend ma lot of time on my camera.

....and let's not forget that not only does she not mind my LBA - she actively encourages it as she knows full well that I always get an attack of the guilts and she always ends up benefiiting - last year it cost me a horse
