I was out photographing birds with the Bigma and noticed this flower next to my truck as I was putting my camera away. I decided to give it a shot. One of the great things about the Bigma is it's versatility.

That's really nice.... the Bigma is very impressive and I'd really like to get one, when I get the right lottery ticket. About how far away from the flower were you?

Great contrast to make the flower POP.

Thank you, I think I was about 2 feet or 0.6 meters away. The focal length was 200mm and I noticed that the sun was not shining directly on it. The Bigma has a magnification of 1:3.1 show you can get pretty close to small objects. I bought mine from a forum member here so I got a nice deal.

Thank you, the lighting was really good at the time since it was later in the day.
