Now that I am back home from my holiday travels, I would like to offer this flower photo -- a Hawaii Belle hibiscus -- to wish all of my readers a bright, happy, and colorful 2009.
You got that kind of background blur at f/10.0? Niiice. Is that a macro lens (or one with a macro setting)? Is that how you did that? Or was it just the 105mm focal length on a close up subject?
@ 2Sweet -- Thank you, and Happy New Year to you as well.
@ Mojo -- Thanks. Yes, the Nikon 105.0 mm lens is a dedicated macro lens. It is a superb lens, well worth the money that you have to save up to get it!!
@ Becky -- Glad I could brighten your "gloomy and snowy day" with a tropical blossom.
@ Kathy - Thank you. Yes, it was an enjoyable trip -- thanks for asking -- but it's always good to get back home!

Either way, it's a very striking capture.

Thanks, and glad you got home safe.

What a beautiful bloom - like a lady dancing in a full, ruffly skirt!
