The shallower DOF in the cron shot wins out IMO...excellent "Bouquet" as well. ;-) Montie >>That one works extra well with the simpler background and shows the delicate structures and tones nicely Barney. Did you try a version with slightly wider framing (so outer petals not cropped) too? Since you've declared Sunday also a flower day, I had a try here Sunday comparing my APO Summicron 75 ASPH on M9 to the Makro Planar 100 (on my D7000). The Planar on APS-C is effectively twice as long of course and benefits from the greater working distance. Both shots at f/2 and uncropped. Same developing. I left them larger than usual for a better look too. http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman/image/143740345 http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman/image/143740346 Cheers, Geoff http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman
