Wow! Stunning cactus flower Patricia! Wonderful soft light, terrific detail and shallow DOF. Looks like your new camera is functioning well and you're learning your way around it quickly! #8818589Patricia A. Casey August 10, 2010
Thanks, Dee....yes I'm having fun with it for sure....This flower happened to the only one on the huge cactus blooming....we had some rain and that brings about more blooms from our wonderful cactus friends....Have a wonderful evening....Hugs, Patricia #8818670Dee Langevin August 13, 2010
