Found these wings lying out on the front lawn. Don't know where the rest of the moth went. Maybe bats or birds got him. :shock:

Super detail in these Ken. Now let's put that new macro lens down occasionally and keep the Meiji and Axiostar limbered up!

The Meiji and the Axiostar have both been quite neglected since the arrival of the 20D and the 100mm macro lens for sure. However I find that after that absence of use, it made them a bit of a refreshing change. My interests are much to varied and expensive! Thanks Charlie. :D

Could be, but on the other hand you're very handy as a benchmark when I talk to my wife about all the photo stuff that I buy. Many thanks, Ken :!: :D
