CLIMBING PANDANUS (FREYCINETIA MULTIFLORA), CHICAGO BOTANIC GARDEN, GLENCOE, ILLINOIS, FEBRUARY 17, 2011
Pentax *ist DS
SMC Pentax-DA 35mm f2.4 AL
1/180 sec. f3.5
ISO 800
Deborah Abbott captured this unusual Old World tropical shrub with an old camera (vintage 2004) and new lens (vintage 2010) then other day at the Botanic Garden. The lens focuses so closely that it is almost a macro, and despite its plastic mount and comparatively low price it is remarkably sharp, with excellent color rendition.

Henry, I just wanted to let you know how much I am thoroughly enjoying your photos. When I see in my blog reader that you have a new post, I always know I'm in for a visual feast.
Best,
Donna
