Dried Pepper

Uploaded: September 18, 2007

Description


Playing with new 100mm macro lens a couple years ago.
Pepper from my brother's garden, was getting ready to throw away.
My artistic juices seem like this some of the time, all dried up.
Canon 100mm. Entered "Details & Macro".

You've been doing macro shots for such a long time. No wonder you are so good at it. Clarity and lighting are super here. Certainly the red is so striking. #741393

How can you do this to us Steven. We need our DDR fix often and your the master.

I do understand about the book, I've "started" a few over the years. Maybe someday.

Let us know where to buy it when the time comes.

God bless
