I'm so used to the newer features of my D90 that I seldom take the D40 with me to shoot anymore.

I wanted to try out my new 60mm f/2.8 micro lens on the D40. I can tell I will have a good time photographing the Bumble Bees later on this spring!

I'm very satisfied with my 60mm micro lens. Works well on both my Nikons.

But I was also surprised to find out how nice the macro images turned out that were taken with my 55-200mm vr lens and 16-85mm vr lens on the Nikon D90. That inexpensive little 55-200mm vr lens is amazing!

Alandra,

I think it is a Magnolia. The weather is taking it's good old time warming up in Ohio, too. I was surprised to see so many trees and flowers with blooms yesterday at the OARDC.

I wanted to try out the 60mm Micro lens on my D40, a camera I seldom use since purchasing the D90. I made some excellent macros with the D40 last year. And it's nice to see that the 60mm lens has only improved my possibilities. The flower bud you commented on is my favorite picture from yesterday's shoot.

Thanks so much for viewing my flowers and buds!
