I don’t know if this belongs in section macro or not, full size is kind of close up detail for a flower so. I opted to have it here.
Full size (warning, large)
Hand-held with a Sony Alpha SLT-A35 shot.
Lens is a Minolta MAXXUM AF 35-70 1: 4 I found at a thrift store for $ 9.85, seems to be significantly sharper images vs my MAXXUM Minolta 35-70 lens.
C & C welcome.
