Hi Don, I'm glad you enjoyed my photo.. Thanks very much... I think I'm going to use my 75-300mm for more close photos, I also like the DOF I can get with it..

Hi Lorraine, Ann, Cindy, and Jas... Thank you all so much for your wonderful comments. I'm glad you all liked my photo with the blurry background. It is fun and a little challenging to take macro shots with my 75-300mm critter hunting lens...

Nice, clear, close-up of these very pretty flowers and I like the 'soft' focus of the ones in the background, showing colour but not definition. :)

They are a very pretty bloom and the blurred background enhances them :)
