Thank you so much, Ro, Kathleen and Cathy. I can't take credit for the seeing - I went on this shoot with Brenda LaFleur, another BPer with a fantastic gallery. She is the one with the eye to notice and shoot these wonderful leaves. I was just a little copycat!!! LOL :) #1435124

Donna Roberts June 06, 2005

Guess I am not adding anything new but I just had to say how dynamic this leaf shape and design is.
Well captured Marsha (even if you are a little copycat.....LOL)

Brenda - I still want a camera with changeable lenses, but for macro work you really can't beat this Olympus on super macro mode. I think even if I got a new camera for long shots I would still use this little guy for the close work. #1447170
