Beautiful. Love the first one. What macro do you use? I'm looking forward to moving back to Phoenix, AZ area they have wonderful butterfly exhibit at the botanical gardens and I'm excited to try out butterfly macro again.

I'm wanting a 105mm but think I'm gonna try out extension tubes on my 50mm because can pick them up cheap. I'm getting a 85mm f/1.4 nex or I'd grab up a 105mm. I've heard it does god portraits too but for some reason I really want the f/1.4 I think its because I regret not getting the 50mm f/1.4 over the 1.8 and the darn kit I've used maybe 5 times. Maybe later I'll move on the 105mm. My tax refund just won't be as big this year and I got computer upgrades to do as well.
