    Very well done, Wally. Can you share a little bit about your technique? Is that a macro lens?

    Thanks kdog, they are shot with the canon 100 macro lens, it is a very versatile and sharp lens IMHO.

    Thank you GREAPER, I appreciate it!

    Nice set. I like the effect of the first one, like it's arising from a fog.thumb.gif

    Thanks Liza!! Yah, that 100 is awesome........I just gave mine to my daughter, and got myself a Sigma 150 2.8 ex macro. Jury still out on that move.

    I almost got that Sigma but decided not to, since I hate using a tripod. I can still get away with handheld using the 100.

    Yah, the 150 is heavier for sure. Hope I can handhold it too!!
