Sensational composition, Bob, and the clarity and detail are amazing--I love seeing the *texture* of the petal through the raindrops--outstanding! #4345223Les Rhoades May 29, 2007

Thanks! The Iris' are sitting out there again tonight after another watering, but I'm charging my batteries for a trip tomorrow early a.m. to MY mountain. I figure I have to leave around 3:30 a.m. Pitiful!!.. :-)Bob #4348952

Great macro Bob. The magnification of the water drops looks cool and the color is fabulous. Great image. #4380006Shelly A. Van Camp June 13, 2007
Very Pretty! #4393131Susan Jane Allen June 17, 2007
Haven't stopped by for a while and having a nice browse! Nice detail on those water drops and nice to see an example of what you do with the Canon 180 macro L. Do you miss the image stablization with the 100-400L? I've been looking at the 180 for a long time (and will look for quite a while longer!) but IS has spoiled me! I wish Canon would come out with a macro L with IS! #4404725Marcie A. Fowler July 01, 2007
Absolutely beautiful. The colors and details just leap off the page. Excellen work. #4463312Jillian Danielson July 08, 2007
