The last two are very cool. Some unsolicited advice - on the first shot the backlighting is great, but the rose is a touch underexposed. Looks like you left your flash off. A touch of onboard flash (-1EV, maybe less) would have brought up the face without destroying the backlighting. You can also use your hand as a scrim if you want to more selectively light with the onboard flash.

Banksia is curious. Nice shots!

Thanks Tim, glad you liked them.

Thanks Chad, I'll give that a crack next time.

I'm always open to advice here,... I've learned so much since i joined this forum.:biggrin:

Cheers,
