Red rose shot wide open.
Last two months I took many photos of flowers with Canon 100mm macro lens. Usually I set aperture to f/8 - f/16 range. Today I shot wide open (f/2.8) to make pictures with creamy green background and soft flowers. I liked some results.

on May 17Very nice color and light for this shot. I'm a off-the-cuff shooter and I find myself shooting wide open quite often. It has a lot to do with capturing what I'm actually seeing through the viewfinder, although I do pay for it sometimes with such limited DOF that I miss focus on important details.
