Firecracker Flower – another ‘babied’ tropical plant that has survived this winter. This has survived 3 winters now – as it’s grown in a flower pot, it’s easy to move around with the change in season.
Used Sigma 150mm macro lens @f/9.0 for this shot.
If you love macro and got some cash to invest in photography hobby, this is one of the best lens I would suggest.

Wow Sasi, that’s a beauty! I love the monochrome colouring, the depth of field and the composition.
The one you did yesterday was arresting and eye catching, but this one is just beautiful. Exquisite!
Very nice Sasi, great sharpness where it needs to be and nice creamy bokeh. Great colors and nice composition. Great job.
Wow, this is stunning. Lovely macro, great lens, but an even better ‘eye’
Great detail. Nice composition.
Beautiful image Sasi. The clarity and texture are fantastic.
Wow! This makes me want a macro lens! If I ever get one I hope to have your eye for beauty!
Great macro Sasi. This is gorgeous!
Wow! That’s one of those shots that makes me wish I’d taken it! Beautiful!
Beautiful!! Simply beautiful.
the only thing I’m trying to figure out is the slight dark haloing around the bud and stem
Wonderful macro Sasi. As others have said in a round about way, the equipment won’t matter if you don’t have the vision and my friend, you do have the vision!
Beautiful!
