Have fun with your new camera...

The close-up of the iris is just wonderful!

I like the Iris image. The high pass filter really enhanced the detail.

and I'm going to go out and take a few snaps. It's the Tokina EL 28mm 2.8. It's the closest I have to a Nifty 50, at 56mm.

I have two lenses on my wish list, the Panny 14mm and the Oly 25 1.8. I'm getting the Panny next month.
