Thank you, Dan!

I've been pleasantly surprised with the bokeh from that lens -- and, well, just about everything about it, the more I use it. I just wish it were a little wider at the short end -- maybe 50mm, or so. But, at under $200 brand new, I'm not going to complain too much.

First off, apologies for the horrible pun of a title.

Now, onto the photo. I took it today at the mimosa tree in my front yard. I
did some experimenting to see what kind of setup I need. I would've liked
the bee to have been a bit sharper, but I though maybe the blur would lend a
sense of motion. Just not sure if it works.

I'm guessing I'm going to have to bump up the ISO and shutter speed enough
to compensate for another aperture stop at f/9 to get a little more DOF.

I'd appreciate any comments or suggestions anyone has to offer.

Thanks!
