Nice grouping of flowers in the first shot. Did a good job getting enough of them to be in focus with the light on them to draw the eye. I've never seen an azalea with those pretty colors. Both are very good. Which lens did you use?

Thanks, Tammie. I don't know what kind of azalea it is, but it is very pretty. The two shots were taken at 21 mm and 22 mm. I have two lenses that will do that, but I think I used the 10-22 mm lens for these shots. If so, I must have gotten really close.
