Excellent, Robin! Just as a matter of interest, did you also set your camera to macro mode when taking this picture?

Hi Herman,

Yes, I basically use the same settings on the optic zoom as I do for digiscoping (i.e. Andy Bright's recommendation). I find that the sharpest shots come when the camera zoom is set in the area where the flower turns yellow.
