We can already tell a difference between this one and her old outfit. All I need to get her now is a good Macro lens. The lens on her old outfit (Pentax K5 IIs) is a Sigma 18-250 macro, but a dedicated lens for flowers and stuff would really be nice.

Nice she gets great close ups with them.
I run a Nikon with an 18-55 and a 55-300.
I also want a macro the 18-55 is ok but still not great and some day when I win the lotto something that zooms to 800 would be nice.

We've thought of a teleconverter or something like the new Tamron 100-600 lens that a photographer friend says is getting really good reviews.

I cant imagine the shots she would get with one of those.

It would really be nice. Probably 99 percent of the pictures she takes are from the truck. We just drive around Mingo and if she sees something she tells me to stop and the camera goes out the window and it's snap snap snap.

In the Mingo Photo contest last year she won 2 first place ribbons (in the two most contested areas), a third and honorable mention (4th place). She was VERY happy.

Went on a Photo Safaris again again the last couple days and Patty went nuts at an Azellia "Farm" Friday. I have to admit it was a pretty setting/flowers. Hope you enjoy the following pictures of the flowers and the animals.
