   Your photos are always amazing in quality, and even more so when i think about the volume of work you post daily.
   But your titles, they crack me up.
   Thanks!

    Canon EF100, a great value for a truly fine macro lens.

    Where's the "No bugs were harmed in the photographing of this scene"? Did you have to crush the one to keep the rest in line?

    Just not doing it for me, sorry...

    Truly a fantastic lens, I agree. L quality glass and multi-purpose.

    I am curious about the lighting, it looks harsh, yet soft boxed.
    Too much reflection for me, monisuer....

    Where was this taken?

    This looks very similar to the ones that I took in Muir Woods about a month ago... I was surprised at how many there were!
