Reza, these are very nice, especially the first, but I really enjoyed your tree picture above, and the tulip garden pic appears dimensional on my monitor

Reza, bobbytan and rtallent, thank you, I'm happy you liked it.
Reza, I look forward to se yours with tubes! I like the second one from your last set, don't be afraid to enhance the skyline a bit more
bobbytan, #4 is very beautiful
rtallent, wonderful golden glow! Wouldn't mind see that one twice
Good to see new people posting here, signatures and watermarks that are placed in vacant spaces and not interfering with the main subject are invisible to me
Reza - nice job with the 85L, especially on the pink rose. The 85L is quite a hard lens to shoot with for flowers (compared the the 100L macro) mostly because of the long MFD. I don't have much success with it. I guess you can use an extension tube but I don't always have that with me. Besides, the 100L is just so sharp and versatile (and the bokeh is really nice too) I don't even want to consider using a different lens for flowers and bugs.
sorry about the firewall thing, I am retired from networking and computer business, don't know what to say about that....hopefully it is not your brain shutting the door
