Lovely shot Nigel, flowers can be such a challenge sometimes I find. If I get down to their level I often wonder if I will be able to get up again

A very good shot of a simple subject....it proves also that you can achieve good separation and bokeh with a long focal length and at f10...….compositionally the blue flowers in the background frame the subject well

Thanks Roy, this is actually from my 55-250 IS, it really does belie it's modest price.

I know I wouldn't... Thank Canon for long lenses!...

Thanks Brian, exactly what I was aiming for.
