“You're only given a little spark of madness. You mustn't lose it.”
~ Robin Williams

First attempt with my new 100mm macro lens on the 30D. So far, I'm impressed. I'm used to shooting macro with a wide angle lens ~ this is more than a bit different... WAY different than my coolpix. It's bigger, heavier, and heaven's to Betsy, there are so many options and menus to choose form on this camera my head's spinning in circles! i am so thrilled about this!

I love tulips and I love macro shooting of flowers, but I haven't had that since my SLR croaked.

the gentle swirl of this fresh petal, the curl it is, the color light and ready to burst...the energy unfolding...it is evident...life!
