Thanks Kodiak
Though i am not impressed at all with the lighting..
Shot with the SB700 on camera with the diffuser but too harsh..
This may come from the specular light cutting the subject in halves!
I think it's time for you to move to off-camera flash!

Yep definitely.. but in this shot i had to do a bit of a circus cos this chap was on a plant in my neighbor's house...
and i was leaning over my compound & shooting through live view as he was far off... and it was just at around sunrise...
better attempt next time i hope
Possible encounter with a fly swatter?

Alright! Yesterday i happened to visit 'Lalbagh - A botanical Garden'
It's the largest Garden in Bangalore & twice every year during the Indian Independence Day & Republic day they host a Flower show.
August 15th is Indian Independence Day so for 2 weeks Flowers will be exhibited.
Lalbagh literally means 'Red Garden' in English & it spreads across 18 acres of land in the heart of Bangalore city.
So hope you guys are ready for a show of Flowers!
This is the 'Glass House' which is the main display area.
Sorry about the tight pic, but the 105mm was the only lens i carried with me
In the middle of the arch (behind the glass), you can see a statue kind of thing.
The Asoka pillar is the 'Emblem of India'

Nice shots. So why did you decide on only carrying the 105?

Hmmm...
1 - I had never had an opportunity to do flower photography with the 105 before (not that i did a lot of it before that
)2- i had just gotten back from a 11 hour work shift & i was already busted... The place gets REALLY crowded.. so wouldn't have time or space or energy to change lenses & stuff

Good reasons. Since I had the surgery on the shoulder I have only been carrying one lens with me most of the time. That is why I got the 18-105. It has been a great walk-around lens. I just wish it did macro.

Makes sense..
But am a little clumsy around anything... so not sure how long that would last for me
