Itchy Trigger Finger

I was in the mood to take a few pictures tonight.... So I decided to take a few shots of one of the floweras my wife has planted in the yard.

It's a stubborn plant... I think due to the cold nights we've been having this year. But, it finally bloomed...  So, I thought I'd grab a photo of it.

I an limited to a maximum aperture of 5.6 with the lens I have. Although I am fairly happy with the results, I wish I had a lens that could provide me with a shallower depth of field.

I do have a 50mm 1.8... But. that is too wide for my needs... Especially in this case.

Oh well... Worl with what you have right? This was taken at 85mm and cropped a bit in post processing to give it a square aspect ratio.
