very fine pic, i used to have Z1, has quite a good macro, the colors and the background(actually no background) are especially good
Well done!

Thanks a lot!
I see you're using a 5D now -- how does this one perform compared to the Z1?

An another world of photography has opened
I chose from EOS 350D, Nikon D70 and 5D and that was the best choice.
The noise is at ISO 1600 is lower than ISO400 with Z1, the sharpness is superb, finally with AS I took some photos with almost a second exposure time.

Excellent!
Well, ISO400 on the Z1 really is ugly, even ISO200 is. That's why I use ISO50 as often as I can (I need the mini-tripod a lot ^^). From the higher-priced ones I tried the Dimage A200 btw, but wasn't too happy with both the results and handling. So if I ever think about getting a new one, I'll consider the 5D instead.

wanted to buy a2 or a200 at the very beginning, but the price difference is so small that i decided to buy SLR

Is there anything more beautiful than computer hardware?

Tolle Idee, hab mir schon oft gedacht, dass so ne Grafik oder Soundkarte irgendwie wie eine Stadt aussieht, aber auf die Idee ein Foto davon zu machen wär ich nicht gekommen.
Die gut gewählte Perspektive und das Licht im Hintergrund lassen aber wirklich ein Großstadt-Feeling aufkommen.

Du sagst es, wie eine Großstadt siehts aus, war auch mein Gedanke dahinter
Irgendwann werd ichs aber sicher nochmal fotografiern, um eine noch größere Tiefenwirkung zu erhalten.. Na mal sehn

Das ist auch wirklich cool!
Gibt einer Soundkarte gleich eine persönliche Note!
Meine ist gerade am letzten Wochenennde geflogen, weil sie sich unter XP trotz intensiver Treibersuche nicht mehr benehmen hat können...na, zum Glück hatte ich auch on-board...

Jaa, danke!
Ich hab meine Soundkarte (wie man hier sieht) eh auch net in Verwendung, eben weil onboard völlig ausreichend is

at this level of magnification, a sound card resembles an oil refinery. odd.

and use a tripod and an high f the hightest, so you can expand your dof

Well, the low F-number was on purpose on this one as well, I didn't want a large dof here -- but if I do another (a blue) one, I'll consider it nonetheless
Thanks for the

very very nice, clever idea, i have to say that i'll copy one day

Sure, go ahead and make a similar one! 
Nice idea making this with blue bg, btw.. Maybe next time. Gotta take another board then thou (since this one is black/gold and goes better with yellow/white colors I think). The "weird" angle was on purpose thou
