I was trying to decide to post this or not.  But all this talk of
macro lenses pushed me over the edge.  Taken two days ago as I saw the
sun shining through the daffodils.

Pentax *istD, Tamron SP 90/2.8 Macro AF, Tripod
ISO 200, 1/500 @ f/8.0

Having previously owned the FA 100/2.8 macro, I can say that I am just
as, or more happy with the Tamron macro.  Advantages to the Tamron are
that it is much lighter to work with and the AF/MF is much like the
FA* lenses with a push/pull ring and has much better MF feeling.
Image quality is quite close between them.

Nice shot, Bruce. Like this one -- delicate. I like my Tamron too.
