I have a flowering pear tree on the property that I've been wanting to get pictures of for a long time. My E500 lets me get the pictures I want now with not too much effort. This bloom is about 1.5 centimeters across. This image is cropped about 50% from the original. I used a 135mm f3.5 lens on some extension tubes. It is handheld with little post processing other than resizing and a touch of sharpening. I had the camera set to +2 on the sharpening. It was a little hard to take with the wind blowing but I think I got a good number of keepers.
