This is magnificent Amy! Really outstanding floral shot! Colors are wonderful too! Can you tell me what lens you used for this?

Thanks Alex! I used the kit lens we discussed, the Nikon 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6G ED-IF AF-S Nikkor Lens.

Is this the kit lens? You did a terrific job with it! I might have to reconsider the quality of this lens :)

Yes, it's the only lens I have so far so all my photos to date have been taken with it. This was taken outside, late evening, hand-held, shot in aperture priority. The only editing done was slight saturation, cropped, and unsharp mask.
