    Re: Daisies and Friends

    Looks like the daisies are a welcome sight to many - especially those with compound eyes.

    I especially like your #1 shot there.

    Re: Daisies and Friends

    Yes that first one was a real treat for me. I don't get a lot of BFs in the garden and this one stayed long enough for 3 or 4 shots. The others were very numerous and I had plenty of opportunities with them. Always appreciate your comments Loupey, thanks for the thoughts.

    Those are some dandys. I'd have to say #1 is my fave. Although, they are all excellent.

    Re: Daisies and Friends

    Beautiful shots OT! Looks like you have been getting lots of good use out of your macro Your wife's garden is beautiful! I'd love to see a full shot of the garden sometime. I haven't been able to do much gardening this summer. Being pregnant and having sciatica doesn't allow much gardening for my back.

    Re: Daisies and Friends

    Thanks Paul your comments are always looked forward to. As you know two of my great passions are playing with the macro in the garden and of course the family. Jack is a very precocuis three year old now and we have three one year olds to go with him now. We have quite a time when they all get together.
