Thank you for your donation to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society

This is one more of those photos that makes me really want to go buy a Macro lens! I love how you captured the intricate detail of the fibers on the plant. Filling the entire frame as you did gives a real sense of this being larger than life.

I might have wanted to increase the DoF a little so that the leaves coming toward the viewer are also in focus, but I wouldn't have done that at the expense of bringing the background into focus.

What a great idea, the little guy certainly looks like they are having fun!! Techinically I would like to have seen all of the face in focus and possibly a little more light on the top of the head but I you have captured some great detail and the subject works well against the background :o)

I don't know how you got this photo, but that little guy (or gal) is adorable!

This is a really cute shot. Such a lovely face on that pup. Nice set up and the draping of the background was done very well. You must do pet portraiture. If not, you should.

Amazing how much they can stuff in there isn't it. ;^) This is cute. I wish that some of the seed was in focus with the chipmunk. Nonetheless, a nice capture. Good luck in the challenge.

This is funny.It is too bad that the lighting isn't very good.
But I still love it. I sometimes get tired of staged photos. This is real life. 10! from me.
