it finally stopped raining

i got out of the house and started taking pictures

White flower- open your lens to f/4 to get more background blur and pay attention to your exposure as you've blown the highlights in the flower.

Other image-don't know what it is, but from a technical standpoint it's a good shot.

Hindsite-ya might have used your 70-200 for nicer images.

i forgot to mention that i just got the lens wednesday and was trying it out. thanks for the input. the second image, i cant remember what its called. its one of those garden plant =)
