Tomato Run

Uploaded: August 03, 2011

Description

Photographed years ago as a transparency. Scanned and worked in CS5. I was "advised" not to submit this because it was an ugly creature. But, I've never been accused of listening to anyone.

I can't imagine not submitting this, Dave. It's a superb macro and he probably thinks we're ugly too. LOL. #9590028
