I was lazy this weekend and only had my 5Diii plus a 24-70 f2.8 Mkii L with me.

Thanks for looking

Thanks Stan. I prefer the second as well - a better angle and crop! Hopefully with oodles of umph!!!

Of the original set I quite like the second image.

The reworked version of the group of lilies is good too.
