[Daniel Cadieux]

Congratulations Gary!

D3s, Nikkor 200-400mm, 2.0TC, focal length 800mm, f9, 1/250, iso 400, tripod. Took Artie Morris's lead and used a long lens for flowers. The narrow angle of view provides great isolation and bg control. C & C appreciated.

[Anita Bower]

Congratulations. Simple and striking.

[Diane Miller]

Colors and soft texture evokes a bowl of tropical sorbet! Congratulations!
