Yeah, the pink is amazingly vibrant.

I like the tubular effect of the flower in the first : I was going to say you might even want to try a really close crop on the stamens (?), but the ones at the end that are standing up look really good...

(Are those water droplets in the second picture ??)

Frank,

First shot is beautiful indeed. Great DOF, sharp, nicely composed. Vibrant colour of flower and contrast of bee makes this photo work.

Nicely done

Cheers

Gee the color is so brilliant, it's striking... You're making that lens work very, very well...

Very nice Frank. Vibrant colour and nice composition in the first. Lovely Grevillea of some sort. Haven't seen that type up this way
