Falconest: love the flower shot -- nicely saturated colours.
rawpaw: nice bug shot. Every time I see a ladybird, I'm reminded of the "Miniscule" animated TV series by French company Futurikon. It takes a humorous look at the world of insects, shot against real life backgrounds. Have a look at http://minuscule.tv/ to see what I mean.
Nikon D7000 and a bunch of Nikon stuff — oh, and some Canon p&s's too
Falconest, my Kenko tubes are the only gear I have for getting any closeup shots.
I enjoy this poor man's cheap macro set up. Use them on my 50 and 70-200
Here is the classic shot of our national symbol............ a Screaming Eagle.
Taken on 5/19/12 during a presentation by Jonathan Wood a, wildlife rehabilatator, of The Raptor Project. Any American from the US that gets a chance to see this presentation GO! It is well worth the cost (approx $10). The Bird's name is "Uncle Sam"

Here's a shot from the weekend of a group of friends playing poker.
The table is a composite of 5 images to get the exposure just the way I like it and then each individual was seated at the table by themselves and another images was taken. This was then blended into the final image you see here.
I know there's a bunch of things that I could have done to make the image better, but I still like the overall result
My Savior, My Leader, My Father and My Shepard.
I praise thee Lord All Mighty
Maybe nothing special for you northern hemisphere types but it's rare for me to shoot frost. This from a recent holiday to New Zealand.

DPR, nice pic of frost on pine needles, like the faded green effect of the frost. Cool!
For Americans, citizens of the USA, here is my tribute to our fallen Warriors. Another pic of the Bald Eagle, 'Uncle Sam'.

DPR, I could have used some frost yesterday as it was in the low 90's F here in Atlanta. I could use a trip to NZ even more. It is on my list for a good 2 week vacation, but I think a return to Alaska might be in the cards this year.
