Great to finally meet you, Craig! Thanks for loaning me that clamp too :smile: . This is simple and very beautiful. The light was really nice wasnt it?

Ditto what rick says, and maybe get rid of that little dot in the left upper area where the shadow meets the light, my eye goes right to it. :smile:

Beautiful. I love seeing you work with that new lens of yours.

Right on! Wonderful light and lovely mist on the flower, sweetened by the light. Terrific job, Craig. Don't you just love the 100 macro? I use my 105/2.8 micronikkor a lot; it's really old, now, but still fetches me the shots. :smile:

Wow, Craig. This is one of the best Tulip shots I've ever seen. Subtle, elegant, sensual. Awesome.
