I likeed the results I got with this capture shot with the canon 70-300 IS USM lens, and the kenko DGX 1x4 converter.

I hope you like it as well, and thanks for the comments either yay or nay.

Makes me want to listen to Asleep At The Wheel, Tigz. My way of saying it is relaxing.

Very nice Sandi. If you cropped any from the top, it's just a bit too tight for the pink flower. If there was no more, cloning away some of that highest petal will serve the same purpose, leaving it some breathing room, and helping the balance.

A wonderful array of colors and the perfect dof so we can see more of the garden.

Now this is a garden shot, Sandi! Great color and variety and as Biff said it does have a kind of dreamy effect - well done! The camera and converter got along quite well in this shot -

Beautiful collection of colours. I love how they just compliment and pick each other out. Stunning focus on the main subject matter too. Fab :)

Hi, Sandi...

Yay or nay? I want to say nay and sign this Mr. Ed, but that's even weird for me.

If I'm not mistaken I think I detect a flaw in your shot. I think I see a small amount of haloing or discoloration around the primary subject. Unless this flower is emitting a deadly toxin, the only other explanation is that there is some over sharpening or another software issue. Thank you for two less than perfect shots in a week. It couldn't have happened to a nicer flower.
