thanks FarmerJim, their are thousands of these junipers where I live southern Colorado front range. I like to take the full tree also. Go hiking quite often will try and get some better shots. They look good in color also when it's sunny, which is usually the case. Will post some color versions. You can always go from color to B & W, a little hard to go the other way.
don't have a FF body, have a D7000, here is a orchid. have focused with camera as close as I could getting full flower in the picture - this any better ?

I purchased a D7000 in Dec. love the camera, have purchased two other DX format lens 10-24mm and the 18-300. Friends have recommended that since this is my first DSLR I should be buying FX format lenses. If and when I upgrade to a FX format camera body I will have glass I can use. They say your lenses will last a lifetime but not a camera body, is this good reasoning ?
