All of you who know me probably know what I'm going to post... sorry for being so predictable. But after more than 10,000 images shot w/the K10D few outdo this one I spontaneously took my first few weeks of ownership...


(you can read about it in the 'introducing me' link in my sig)

This is a recent shot that has renewed my relationship with the Vivitar 105/2.5 S1 macro ... love that lens

These are buds from a local native wildflower, Indian Pinks - 'Spigelia marilandica '.
