3 The Sumpweed is about to bloom. There are thousands of these. Better get the benadryl out.

Nice set Jeff. I like the SG taken with the Tamron.

Some cool shots there, Jeff. hard to choose but I think my favorite is #3. it just seems to jump out of more and the dof is awesome.

Thanks! I like that one as well, for the reasons mentioned. I think I got a little too close to the Spanish Gold, and the wind was blowing them around, so it was a challenge to get focus, especially with the macro.
