That bug looks real tiny, Gus! Like the pastel colors in the petals. Would like to see the bug a bit sharper.

Love the pastel colours on the petals Gus, and the deep maroon on the center. The details on the bug are quite something. This looks like a relatively new lens. I just seem to remember the 105 with extension tubes??

those pastels are awesome!! that little bitty bug is almost too much against all the soft colors. nice find!!

Hi Lady Jackie,
Actually; in the order of purchase, it was the Nikkor 60mm macro, the 200mm macro, and then came the 105mm macro...my favorite one is the 105mm macro with the combination of extension tubes, she is the most forgiving out of the rest...:D:);):cool:
