    Excellent macro, and thanks for the information. Considering its beginnings, it's quite beautiful!

    Thx Cees... and what great detail you have in yours... i really need to get a better macro, or a distance ring... and then maybe start using the tripod, can only get so much with a handheld on a moving branch.
