Thank you very much.

Had a quick browse through your gallery - some really nice bird and flower shots in there.

Please excuse a nerdy question, but I notice in your Tiger Moth DD that you use a Canon 100mm f/2.8 Macro lens. Do you use this for all your photos or have you tried out any others? The only reason I ask is because I love macro shots and really ought to invest in something a bit better, and as you have a 30D I assume lenses will be the same for the 20D.

Very Welcome

I don`t have another macro for my Canon yet, wanting a macro flash first, i would suggest paying a visit to a local store and asking to try one out before making a decision to buy.
Lenses should fit ok for both models as far as i am aware.

Good thinking, I think I'll give that a go - try before you buy (although in reality I'm an eBay freak for this kind of thing).

Nothing wrong with trying first buying from somewhere else later.

a great picture of a beautiful flower!
My suggestion: "inspiratia portocalie"
That is Romanian and means: "the orange inspiration"
That sounds exotic, but that is ok. This plant looks exotic.
by the way, You have a nice gallery.

Thank you for the kind comment and the title suggestion - it's certainly much better than "flower macro"! lol

Thanks for looking through my gallery too - glad you enjoyed it.

I believe it's a dahlia of some kind, but to be honest I'm not a flower expert in that kind of way (I just think they make good photos sometimes! lol).

Thanks for the comment and

What an amazing flower. The patterns are quite astounding. As for a title, I'm a bit limited myself.....what about 'Tubular Petals'. I know, it's lame as well.

Thanks very much for the comment and fave. For some reason your suggestion reminded me of Tubular Bells, which sent me off onto possible titles like "Fanfare in Orange" (funny how the brain works sometimes!), but it still doesn't quite do it for me.

It's weird... normally (I think) I'm not too bad at that kind of thing. Oh well...

Keep the NIN flag flying and all the best

You're welcome. LOL, glad to see someone else's brain works funny. Thought I was all alone there.
And the NIN flag will fly forever
