Didn't I say you'd love that 300/4

and that D100

. Ronnie - this is a gem. Actually it's a whole lot of them on the end of some wonderful pubescent stems. I'm coming back here.

Hi Ronnie,

You continue to amaze. This is another outstanding shot. I love the texture in the stems. I think I'd prefer to see this without the reddish OOF buds in the background.

Cheers,
