Yellow Lily

The sharp images this old, VERY inexpensive Vivitar macro-focusing lens produces never ceases to amaze me. ( 9.7 on the PF Reviews) This particular one has the serial # 777xxx, being made by Kobori.

Wow, can't get much better than this. Like I could reach out & touch the petals. Very nice.

Very impressive! I'm sure most of the credit here goes to the man behind the camera, though
