After cutting the grass and giving it a watering I finally took some shots using the right lens.The first 2 shots are with the Pentax 18-250 lens(great all purpose lens) and the others are taken of the flower island in the 2nd shot with the 100mm wr lens that lets me get up close and personal.Every shot was hand held-I was to lazy to drag out the tripod.My wife says that some of the close ups remind her of something obscene.I'll have a glass of red and look close.----charliezap

Charlie, those are very nice shots, very clear and crisp. Sorry I don't see the obscene part, I will have a couple of drinks and return and check out again later. Bob

This time of year there is a plethora of bugs-flowers and other macro ready subjects that are just waiting to be photographed.I'm going to get a full plate of use from that lens Jer.--capn zap

Thanks Jim.We had it completely redone last year late Summer.The grass is slowly filling in and I tend to get a little anal about it and almost turning into one of those "Lawn Nazis"--charliezap

Supposedly the k20d and 100 lens are wr but one does not like to subject them to a chance encounter with the elements..---charliezap
