Nature Strelitzia

Strelitzia · 06:25 PM

Hi

I am not a flower shooter normally but I found this Strelitzia in my backyard.
I acquired the above mentioned lens from a pawn shop recently for $50.00 but haven't had much of a chance to use it. So I thought this could be a good opportunity. Unfortunately the flower had past its best. I was told beauty knows no age, could this be right?

Greetings

You don't publish many of your photographs here and I have no idea why not after viewing this one. Wonderful color and clarity, beautifully captured.
BTW, you literally stole that lens. Bob

...and don't I know it. I am consumed with guilt. Bargaining down the price to this level was a despicable act of betrayal. I may never be able to lift this burden off my shoulder.

Thank you Colin. I think I will use this lens more often. Bojidar Dimitrov describes this lens as "optically virtually perfect".
