You don’t always need a macro lens to take close up photos. This was taken with my Nikon 300mm telephoto zoom lens.

Such a beautiful image, Pete. That small bud looks so fragile, and yet so strong at the same time.

It’s probably fully open by now, if you have as much sun as we have today!

Beautiful photo! I agree, I take many closeup shots with my 70-200 and 300mm lenses.

Thank you, Belinda 🙂 Sometimes I think they even come out better than with a macro lens.
