Wow! Thank you for the kind words once again <3 Yes completely unprocessed, these macro lenses.... :) They know their work!

Originally posted by kanaj: I can hardly believe this is wholly unprocessed. Not even sharpened a little? Geez...this is so consummately beautiful that it's a testament to your skills and eye with your equipment. I prize that far more than processing, so this is going in my favorites right now.

Thank you for the kind words! Happy holidays to you as well - or Gledilega hatid as we say in Iceland.

Thank you so much for the kind words! I must admit, getting scores of 2's and 3's after having given so much effort and in the belief that I understood the guidelines feels like a punch to the stomach, and then comments like yours bring me straight back to a happy and thankful place. Thank you again for the kind words now and before.

I'm guessing that I completely misunderstood the competition theme, considering my image triggered you to give me such a comment? I appreciate that you took the time to comment - however I don't think it is helpful or polite to post question marks and nothing else. Give it to me straight or don't give it at all :)
