love the texture in this photo and the way the sunlight shines thru the leaves. when you were using your macro lens were you inside? I find the slightest breeze impossible to work in! #1534967

Took the words right out of my mouth, Jeff. Glad to see they are still out there. Was about to enter another just to see something new. :o)

Excellent sharpness and lighting Beth. Like it a lot. #10757761

Thanks, these were in one of my flower beds that Rocky took over and planted it for the bees. It was bright and mid morning. I ended up shooting from below them and using the blue sky as background. The flowers are really cute on these, Rocky says you can eat the leaves but no thanks. Here are a couple more. #10758591
