Kevin

Havn't you got anything better to do with your time than make us all salivate :wink:

#1 & #2 are the only ones that don't grab me. Too much OOF. I think you've also been a little overzealous in the sharpening too.

#3 is superb. Great DOF, lovely colours and I like the composition

#4 - my favourite. A great example of the difference the background colour can work. The pastelly pink/peach really sets off the white of the daisy? excpetionally well

#6 - I really like the dreamy softness this has without the appearance of being OOF if that makes sense.

You really have the makings of a great series with these and your other recent floral escapades.

Once again spectacular work Kevin. Vibrant colours, terrific balance and composition and razor sharp. Tremendous series that set a quality standard for us to follow. If I had to choose #9 really does it for me. Superb!
cheers

Great shots. IF I had to choose, I would pick 4 & 6 as my favs. You have given us something to work towards.

WOW these are very pretty flowers, colouful as well. Not a flower person but they look bloody great.

I think the DOF is fine, lovely bokeh from that lens anyway! Fantastic colours, good post processing work.

Man these look good, as said previously gorgeous shots and great bokeh..seems like you have found a sweet lens/body combination great stuff.

Just a note for all you lens lusters. I think you'll find Kevin used a D2X to take these. :wink:

Nikkor 200mm micro is hard to get now! I have a backorder of three since July, but still no sign, and the 85/1.4 price is not good atm due to no stock.

Beautiful colour and shots. you say natural lighting but did you use a tent or reflectors or..... whatever it was its very good and even
