    Christmas Hibiscus. Canon EOS-1Ds, Canon EF 50mm f1.8 II.1/30 sec, f5.6, ISO 100.
    Cropped to 1:1 ratio because that seemed to be more appropriate.

    Thanks Craig. That was at f5.6. The bg was ever more blurred at f1.8 but unfortunately so were most of the petals so you won't be seeing that one.
