@eu4ria1, @photosbyjon, @darylo: Thanks for the FAVs. Been working on a friend's photo challenge. I have always thought the Magnolia blooms were beautiful, but I am VERY happy with this perspective.

@mariaostrowski how do you get involved with the photo challenges Maria? :)

Gorgeous macro shot, Maria! I am curious - what kind of 300mm lens do you have? I am in the market for one for my Nikon D5000.

@pflaume: use the AF-S NIKKOR 55 - 300mm 1:4.5 - 5.6 G ED. I was lucky it came in the kit with my D5100.
@mariemarie: I follow a number of mommy bloggers. One is a photographer: http://debiehive.blogspot.com/, she does challenges from time to time with daily prompts. ALSO here on 365 Project Blog, they do weekly challenges as well :)

@mariaostrowski Thank you for the response, Maria! I have my eye on that one so it is good to know it takes such gorgeous shots!

@pflaume: it really is pretty astounding. I live in San Diego, my friend lives downtown in a high rise, I can get nice shots of the Hotel Del Coronado which is about 4 miles away. My sister also has this lens and she loves it. Good Luck!!
