Had I taken the shot with better sharpness, it would be a different picture. I really like the pinkish background which come from the pink flowers on #9
Originally posted by schmik 8 and 9 do it for me. 8 has great color draws the eye nicely and 9 seems to pop out of the background.

Thanks, 9 is my favorite too.

Thanks! The red maybe too red in Bright Image tone. Some other red flower shots are breeding red in Bright image tone and I may need to desaturate a bit on red
Originally posted by Mike Cash Thanks for sharing these. This happens to be a lens I have my eye on in a current auction and I really wanted to see some samples.
Mike, I got my copy used from marketplace from Steve for about $175. My copy does not have the M signature. And I think it shares similarity to the M 100mm f/4.0 Macro. I am researching on an extension tubes to make it 1:1 magnification, if anyone have suggestion, please pass along. Since my lens is manual focusing and metering, I don't need the AF one but I would prefer auto metering so that the extension tube can be used with my other 'A' lens in
Pentax A 50mm f/2.8 Macro 1:2. Suggestion are welcome.
Thanks,
Hin
