Doug,

Everything about this picture is beautiful ... especially when you can get it at that speed!

Doug -

You've had excellent W BB shots before, but the colors and "pose" on this one make it even better.

Wonderful. SF

Nope, just extension tube for closer focus. Thanks for all the comments!

Doug,

Please forgive the delay in posting. I showed this to the family, the neighbors, various strangers......well, not the strangers......Someday, when I grow up, I hope to make photographs 1/2 as beautiful.
