No doubt it's a MACRO! Great detail, really have the ability to get close, amazing stuff.

Yes - I suppose that I was stating the bleeding obvious

Nice lighting and detail, John. I've just got to get myself a 105 Micro nikkor.

You're doing very nicely with this setup John. I like the lot, but #1 is my pick because the landscape crop works in some way that I, sadly, cannot pin down.

No crops were involved Peter...

My original title for this set was: Come Closer - I Need You!... which may or may not explain why #1 appeals to your most...

Blatant Bump...

I'd expected a little more critique than I have so far received...
Are these type of shots becoming a little too clichéd now???

John, Sorry I read over this one earlier and was in a bit of a rush so didn't leave a comment. I really like these shots, and certainly don't think they are cliched, It's spring we'd expect plenty of flowers All these great flower shots are really inspiring, however also frustrating as I don't have the kit to take similar shots.....

#3 is my favourite, simply composed

#2 I like this one but would crop out some of the right and emphaise the tall and short stamen (or whatever its called).

#1 again I don't find the right hand adds to the shot and would try croping it out
