I chose the following setup; K-3 II, Sigma 17-50mm, fully manual - ISO 100, F16 aperture, 8 second exposures, focused to infinity, I used a wired remote on a tripod. I had to anticipate the blooms and timing that is tricky, but I shot several hundred exposures and feel I got several beautiful shots, so very happy with the results. It does take some deliberation to get good results! Next time I think I'm going to try my old SMC 28mm screw mount glass. Thanks everyone for your suggestions!
