Jonathan, I use micro lens 105mm. If you're using 120mm that would give you larger magnification, are you?

Are all of the flower come from the same plant? Because the last pic look like U. caerulea. But the second last pic look like U. uliginosa.

Lim, flowers were from different plant. They were from the same pool. I notice the differences while photographing, and perhaps the flowers were at different development stage. I maybe wrong.

Hi Robert,

Nope... i dun own an DSLR yet or should i say i dun have any camera for now.... out of my budget...

Normally when i do close up shoot on small object i'll try to use a longer lens for the magnification and detail shoot....

for ISO400 it's still pretty detail... anyway loves your pic robert... thanks for sharing the detail with me... when you sahre i get to learn... hehe thanks..

Cheerio
Jonathan

Hello Lim, you maybe right with the id. The former (U. caerulea) are numerous and i must have chosen a diifferent one (U. uliginosa) as my photography subject, which are not many, few happened to be there. Probably they are numerous in adjacent area. My friend noted the difference but thought they 're the same species. Many thanks.
