This is a first for me, and I do hope to get better at this. This was taken with my 60mm f2.8 nikkor lens today. I hope to get a better close up. (Aperture f/4, shutter speed 1/200s ISO 160.

My friend Brenda is very good at this, and she uses her nikkor 105mm. I will keep playing, and trying.

Thank you for commenting, I do appreciate it.

I love the simplicity of this, the slightly off-center placement of the flake, and the knock-out focus on the flake. This is art, m'lady, not just a photo. Wow! Faved, faved, faved.

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?

I don't know how you did it Tigz, but I am really impressed.
Knik said it best, this is art.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

See by this result that you're a dedicated photographer, Sandi. But actually we knew this already for a very long time.
Keep on 'trying' (LOL!!!). Very well done, my friend.
