These were all captured hand-held using natural light in the past week, apart from the last one, which was a couple of weeks ago. The first seven were captured with a 45-175 lens my G80, the last one with my G5, using the same lens.
The flowers were not perfect, because of the weather, but I think it's nice to see some flowers anyway. The first four are (different) camellias. The last three are (two different) hellebores.
#1 Single shot, ISO 800, f/10, 1/320 sec, processed in Silkypix and Lightroom.

The next two were captured in very poor light underneath decking on an overcast day.

#8 Single shot, ISO 800, f/9, 1/30 sec, Processed in DXO Optics Pro, Silkypix and Lightroom.
This one was captured as part of an experiment with hand-held slow shutter speeds, using electronic shutter to try to counter the effects of shutter shock which is a significant issue with the 45-175 lens on G series cameras prior to the G80.
