And as your title says....Gerbera daisies are one of my favorites! Absolutely stunning photos. And congrats on your anniversary!

What macro lens did you use? I've been looking into getting one, and your 4th shot really stood out to me.

Thank you!

Believe it or not, I'm using 3 stacked macro filters that were my dads he purchased in 1985. he used them on his old 35mm. LOL

Amazing with all the changes in glass now a days that these filters do the job just at good as the new ones they have out now.
