My hubby surprised me with these flowers on my desk this morning. Isn't he a sweetie! I am so lucky, he is very supportive of my photography hobby. These were taken with my Canon 60mm macro lens on a tripod using the self timer because of the slow shutter speeds. I still can't quite get the hang of the macro lens, but I'm going to keep trying!

The colors are great! I just got the 100mm macro & I'm struggling also. Several of my shots since last Friday (the day I got it) have been taken with it.

I can't wait until spring to get more flower shots.

These are beautiful! Although I'm sure you know more about photog and composition than me, I'd take just one more shot of the card to get a little more of the writing in focus, because it's just so special.
