    OK, I will get this one started as well. I went on a long photo safari today (the backyard), and practiced some semi-macro (I need a macro lens). This is as close to macro as I can get with the equipment I currently have.

    I was looking for a bug or two to shoot, but with the tropical storm that is about to hit right here in the next couple days, there were none to be found, only a camera shy lizard.

    A macro lens on the wasp nest would have been great, looking down into the combs

    Here is my contribution ... while on a walk with his Gregness last Sunday, we encountered a pile of things, amongst others mushrooms of sorts. So here are two macros:

    I call this one:

    I ain't eating it! Give it to Mikey, he likes everything! - Or: Hanging out at the Bark Sweat Lodge ....



    And this one would be:

    Dammit, now you cracked the cup!
