I like the saturation and angles of number 3. I think green and pink must be complimentery.

Another congrats Rick, Excellent shots, are you using the "is" without the tripod or with? Are you using an extension tube for your extreme close-up?

I bought that lens a few months ago when it just went on the market. I'm very impressed with it so far. I think it's great for people who cannot afford L-glass, like myself.

Great pictures Bald Eagle. Just wish Santa would visit me and drop in some butterflies! But we will have to be patient for two or three months - meanwhile we will enjoy yours. Thanks for showing.
