This photo really tells a story. I feel nourished just looking at it. Nice angle, beautiful colors, great subject. #443710

Thank you, Barbara. I was so lucky in the position of the woman and the way she was dressed ... even to the gift bag at her side. I had never used the macro lens for anything but macro until that day, but we stopped at the Indian Museum on our way to an orchid exhibit... I was so astounded at the sharpness of the lens, handheld, though I did have a railing for some support. I didn't get any decent orchid shots, but this one is a personal favorite. I appreciate your comment. #2751979

Thanks for commenting, Laura.
You are so right...The American Indian Museum is an amazing photo op in many ways, which certainly helps the amateur's odds! :-) #2887586
