I love the delicate tones and great detail in this fine macro, Debbie! Your lighting is absolutely brilliant! #10048193Debbie Bray March 21, 2012
Thanks guys, I too thought it looked like something had just landed, and had opened it's door, poking up 3 eyes to look around. Nature sure is different sometimes. And what a shame you need to use a macro lens to capture it! #10048206Tammy M. Anderson March 21, 2012
