Taken with my Pentax D20D and Pentax DA* 55 SDM lens at f/3.5; 1/250; ISO-100 manual focus. Jpeg with no post processing at all.
I usually use the Pentax 18-250 which I bought with my K20D body, so have hardly used this lens since I purchased it a year or two ago as sadly I have been bogged down in work. I'm from Australia so it's Autumn here, but a few of my roses have battled through the drought and the cooling weather to produce a last flush before Winter arrives. This was taken about 11am today in cool (20oC), windy & overcast conditions. On my wish list are a K3 a good Macro lens and a 15mm limited. I am definitely in still in the "beginner" category!
