Starting to get a chance to use my new Sigma 70-300mm f-4-5.6 APO DG Macro, got it a couple of weeks ago but work kept me away from it. :cry: I know it's not perfect but I'll learn, I think I could have composed it a bit better by changing the angle to hide the yellow bud behind the petals.

Hi Killie;
As you say - would have looked better with the yellow cloned out, or otherwise removed...
But; still a nice capture. Beautiful colour & nice image with the water droplets...
Were they from an atomiser? Looks too many for raindrops...
Cheers;
Lee

I love flowers with water droplets, was that created with an atomister? Also the composition is great too.

Water was from a plastic bottle thingy wife uses as a fine spray for her plants (clean water only) , my 3 year old grandson was spraying everything in sight so he helped with the flower....and spraying me too LOL.
