very nice indeed. I like the title. It might be my computer screen but I think a little more depth of field would have helped. Maybe one more smaller f/stop. Did you use DOF preview button? Nice image irregardless.

  Thanks, Russell. I appreciate your comments.
I have had my new Rebel 400D XTi for a week now. There is masses to learn about all the various functions. At this stage I still toddle along in the Auto stage. It is such a great adventure though and I hardly let my camera out of my hand just in case I miss a shot.

  I bought the same camera for my wife for Christmas and she loves it. I like it as much as my Canon 30D and the Rebel has 2 million more pixel count than my 30D. Good luck with it.

  Nice capture!!! In my area it tends to be too windy to catch one of these with anything left on it!

  Thanks for your comment, Kimi. I often find when I want to take a close-up, the wind starts blowing the instance I put my eye to the viewfinder, even if there was not a breeze before. Minutes after I took this shot, not a seed was left.
