Shirley, the detailed eyes are amazing!!! You got it, girl! #11605185Shirley D. Freeman June 06, 2017 1
Thank you, Chuck, Margaret and Joanna. I appreciate your kind comments. I was using my 100mm lens, a full 1 to 1 ratio, and it says just under a foot away from the subject to the sensor (I think that is how that is measured), so pretty close. I just talk to them and tell them they have pretty eyes. Some will stay to listen and let me fire off a few shots. I did crop this to a vertical, only because there were some distractions off to the sides. Again, thanks. <>< #11605246Teresa L. Brooks June 07, 2017
