The

Purple Rhodie on the side of my house was out and about and looking good at 9:00 AM here yesterday for the click of the shutter.

This again is that 50mm Canon lens at F11. I did some playing with it the other day and I think it is actually sharper than my high dollar 28-135mm IS lens.

That's May 2006 not May 6th ;-) Nice thing about that 50mm is at $78 with shipping it's not much more than a tank of gas... LMAO

Beautiful shot, Mike! Not a bad price on the lens, either. I may have to invest in one......

Thanks all. Filling the frame is the only tough part with that lens. Not being a macro it will only focus down to 1.5 ft. and I didn't want to screw the macro attachment onto the front of it and lose the DOF. I'm just glad roddies have big bloom clusters. I'm going to try and get some of the fancy two tone purple ones before I take off Wed. evening for Central Oregon. They are just starting to pop open real good.
