Just purchased the Kodak Z760 digital camera, and I am thankfull for the tips from fellow Pixies. Used to use a Canon Ftb(ca. 1970's). Digital is a whole new bug.

Macro Play
Just an orchid I happened to have in the garden.
What some macro and cropping can give you.

There're some excellent photos here guys! I very much like pictures of natural sights and scenes, and these are great.
Don't know if you'd be interested in seeing one I took of an orchid herself got for looking after a horse for someone. (Don't want to hijack anyone....)

Lil,
I'd have thought you'd have been drowning in Singapore orchids where you live.

This is a macro shot of our Night Blooming Cereus, a jungle cactus left to me by my mother (the original plant is over 30 years old)...thrives on our hot humid summers, in hanging baskets in the shade...so much so that we're able to sell rooted cuttings on Ebay...

I'll have to hide that pic from Mrs OF, else she'll want to call in for cuttings.
Our Quarantine has nooooooooooooooooo sense of humour.

OF - I understand completely...US Customs is similarly humorously impaired, hence I can sell anything internationally except live plants...
Oh, & whatever you do, don't mention to her that the flower smells even prettier than it looks...

If one were to appear at a certain Pixies' residence prior to the end of July and grow, then a certain Mrs. Oldfart could enjoy it while sitting on my... er I mean a certain Pixies' back porch swing |
