These both were shot with a T3i and a vintage Pentax 100-200 slide zoom I bought used in the 80's. Behind the zoom was (also vintage) Vivitar 2x teleconverter and shot in natural light from about 6 feet away. The lily was a HDR compilation (my first effort) and the rose was just a one shot image. I bought an adapter off amazon for 13 bucks and broke these relics out that were just sitting in a closet with my Cokin filters for decades. I figured what the heck. These look horrible in this format Will try to repost better images. Learned how to embed these from another post. The lily looks really flat as a jpeg. Much richer as a tiff file.

That's a little better.

I take horrible pictures. I think I need a more expensive camera.

Thank you. I just wanted to see how it would do on a digital body.
