Default Exercizing my new Lens

I just bought a 24-70mm f/2.8L and have been very anxious to use it. I was driving home from work Sunday evening and the light was perfect, so I pulled over to take pictures of these wild flowers by the guard rail.





Thanks for looking!

Looks like your new lens works quite nicely! You'll have to exercise it some more!
Thanks for sharing

Love the first shot, pretty cool, but you could have gone in closer and got a better photo too

Thanks, KazeFox! I don't think my lens can focus any closer, though... at least not without extension tubes.
