You can't beat a good backlight shot like this one.

Must have been a dull (ish) day even though it looks sunny, the EXIF shows 1/350, F8.0 @ ISO 1600.

that's what is weird about my K3, sometimes it shows way different EXIF data than it actually is. The iso was actually 200, I had a max setting of 1600. Who knows?

I'm thinking this might be a good excuse to go to Florida, lots of flowers there Charlie.

Ok that makes more sense, I couldn't quite fathom out the setting on this one.
