    That's a really lovely shot of the Cape Daisy, Woo. :luv:

    The aquilegias in my garden are still nowhere near opening and nothing except the pulmonaria seems very keen to do its stuff. The place seems to have been taken over by overstuffed woodpigeons. I put out a whole containerful of birdseed out this morning and they have not only scoffed the lot but knocked the birdfeeder over and pooped on it for good measure. Now that's what I call gratitude. :flag:

    What camera do you use, Woo? I think it's about time I bought a decent one. My little Olympus does an amazingly good job on holiday snaps considering how little I paid for it, but it can't cope with arty flower close-ups.

    Hi ClaraLou Well I have two DSLR,s but the one I keep in my pocket for my flower close ups is the Cannon A590is which (this is only my opinion)does the job for me, I do know that Marley purchased one and would advise you to ask Marley and all our other friends,as its great to get a broad spectrum of different views,especially when our friends are actually using these cameras,I think we are very lucky to have all this input to hand.I am sure they will supply all the help,and relevant information that you require,and of course if you need to ask me anything please don,t hesitate:)

    Here is an old link for you to look at:thmb::)
