Thank you so much Michelle. The lens is Zoiko ED 50mm f2.0 macro. (Olympus) I just got it and I love it! #4183628

I'll look forward to seeing more great macros from you. I have a 100mm macro lens, but I am not sure I could have captured this much detail with mine! Another thing to add to my wishlist! Congratulations on the new lens! Beautiful work! #4183666

The delicacy in this image is complemented by the beautiful silvery/gray toning. Your careful composition and presentation really enhance the subject. Well done Elizabeth. #5364243
