I have documented a few of the shooting setups with my iPhone to give you an idea about the sizes of the flowers. <http://adam-bridge.smugmug.com/gallery/22003432_Lz2PWj#!i=1761640210&k=9pPhsv8> I have to say that I LOVE setting up and using the NEX-7 using the rear panel to get things close and then getting down with the viewfinder for the final focus. It's a serious joy. Being able to move the focus location around (where the camera will zoom to) is also super. I was entirely focused on the, ahem, focusing while I was doing this so a few places I wasn't paying much attention to the exposure histogram, just going with what the camera decided upon. I think my favorite image is the one that comes up first. I have included full-sized jpeg images so you get a feel for the full content of the images. These were shot at ISO 100 for the most part, a few at ISO 400 when the clouds were out. It was breezy so I had to wait for things to steady down a bit before shooting. Thanks for looking. Comments on composition etc are always welcome. I enjoy hearing people's reactions. Adam
