A few more from yesterday's shoot at the Coffs Hbr Regional Botanic Gardens. The 70-200 F4 L lens is not a macro, just a very sharp zoom, but I have found that it's a good idea to utilise a tripod even in daylight.
These were all taken in JPG (medium quality). I'm hoping to back down this afternoon and take some shots in RAW.

This one was a little bit darkish but a contrast adjustment has brought the colours up a tad better:

Max these are stunning........ see if you can get a number3 close up lens for the front of that zoom, filter size is inside your lens cap, then you will be able to get a lot lot closer

Max, all good but the 2nd is a standout. Can you clone out the spider web or whatever it is though?

Luscious colours! These are masterful and must be printed very large and framed. More!

Number 3 for me just because of the sheer sharpness and colours. Number two seems like there's a little bit of noise.
