@jgpittenger Yes! I'm practicing positions where I can hold it steady enough -- okay when light is good, but not so much when slower!
September 12th, 2017  
@elkereturns Yes, exactly! A little late for the season, but they make such pretty flowers.
September 12th, 2017  
Great macro--love the shape and colors.

Stunning picture.

Well, well, well, gives a whole new meaning to EOTB. I'd never considered taking shots of these flowers, but this photo shows how wrong I was.
September 12th, 2017  
Lovely!
September 12th, 2017  
Very nice shot

Super macro. Nice colours, dof and focus.

A very graceful drape in this plant. Nicely captured with your new lens. Luckily, the light may be great on your upcoming trip.

looks similar to a zucchini..perhaps called a courgette some places. lovely background

Great capture! I just made baked squash blossoms last night. They were from a friend's garden. I stuffed them with ricotta and herbs. Quite tasty!
September 12th, 2017  
They are also great stuffed and fried in a tempura batter.

What a strange shape the flower is. Well spotted! Lovely colours and focus. Great practice for you with the lens. Hopefully you will get good light on safari so hand held shots will be a doddle! Fav!

A magnificent capture, love the colour and shape. Fav
September 12th, 2017  
A fabulous detailed image fav
September 12th, 2017  
Getting ready to unfurl...beautiful!
September 12th, 2017  
Fabulous detail. It looks quite shy in its early stages of development.
September 12th, 2017  
Very nice.... And nicer if filled with some fresh cheese and shortly baked in a preheated oven ;-)
September 12th, 2017  
What a fabulous shape! A chef's hat for me! Love it.
September 12th, 2017  
Interesting curve/spiral
September 12th, 2017  
You'll think I am slightly nuts but it reminds me of a cross between The Grinch and the Cat in the Hat! Anthropomorphism strikes again.....
September 12th, 2017  
Lovely
September 12th, 2017  
Beautiful capture, wonderful detail :)
September 12th, 2017  
Great shot Taffy, it's funny I'm not the only one that thinks of a hat when I see this... :) I was thinking Dopey's hat!
September 12th, 2017  
My first thought was "cat in the hat'. love it.
September 12th, 2017
