Default My first post, but here goes...

I just got my Canon 450D two weeks ago. It's my first DSLR and I'm having a blast with it. I thought I'd share a couple of flower photos I took in the past few days.

Welcome to DPS Juzten! Great shots and very well presented. Love the 1st one, the colors just jump! The second is very nice as well, with the water drops.
Thanks for Sharing and looking forward to more!!
Michael

Welcome! What great first shots! I'll echo the previous sentiments and say that the colors on the 1st one are spectacular. It really makes the shot.
