Workin' my mojo! Only one of these images was shot with the Olympus 85/2. Who knows which one?

Not gonna venture a guess, Mark.  But I will say that the colors you get with these shots is superb, technically amd compositionally.

Splendid work, once again. I like the muted colors and painterly quality to this set.

I'll guess number #3 because it has the shallowest separation from the plane of focus to the next object behind it.

Number 5 is my favorite of your excellent series. It's simply beautiful

My guess is No5, but they are all very good shots.  I agree with Les about the colour.

Those colors are incredible. I'll bet on the orange one with drops, as the 85mm example.

Thanks very much all!

Les, good guess but those flowers are very tiny, maybe 1/4 inch in diameter, hence the appearance of shallowest separation from the plane of focus to the next object behind it, compared to the other images.

Graham, you are right it is number 5! I love this lens! This was shot at it's closest focus distance. I've ordered some extension tubes for it. Maybe someday I'll try the fabled Olympus 90/2.0 macro.
