Love the delicate lines in his feathers. A natural abstract. Lovely.

I like the white vignetting. I've never thought of using a white vignette and will surely try it on a fitting photograph in the future. Beautiful image. Was he sleeping?

Cool shot and cool idea to overlay the web image. He looks almost ready to catch insects, hopefully after you shoot them. ;) That firetrail sure has an abundance of interesting subjects to capture. Trails around here seem devoid of insect life except for grasshoppers. I don't see caterpillars or butterflies anymore like I used to when I was in my teens. The paper wasps haven't even made one single nest underneath my shed's roof when last year there were at least 5 or 6. This saddens me cuz I love bugs.

With that lens you can get 1:1 macros. This looks like a snapshot of 2 screws and washers. As already mentioned, the lighting is what is helping to kill this shot.

I'm looking into buying the same lens so try to impress me with another closer shot of these screws. Get in as close as you can, 12.5 inches or so.

Nice one Roz. He doesn't have a care in the world except to get that pollen. Good job.

Focus is right on the stamens which is crucial to a flower macro. Well done.

Fantastic capture. I shot for over 2 hours without much success, but I saw close to 20 during that time, I even saw the most fantastic one I have ever seen. Of course my camera was pointing in another direction every time I saw one.

Another interesting chapter to this theme and very well done too. That ten year old in your mind is quite the imaginative one. Hope this doesn't only last a week, go for two please. ;)
