Oldiesmann: I'm not aware of any Jenny. Not sure why activity has died down on this site so much though 2023-06-12, 00:06:36

JennyW: Also, does anyone know other photo sharing sites that are Christian? 2023-05-16, 08:47:03

JennyW: Hello Everyone! I really miss activity on this site. I've been discouraged by photography sites where you have to sort through so much explicit content in order to see photos that truly glorify God. I'd love to see this site pick up again. 2023-05-16, 08:46:36

Janet: Carol, I am just reading this.  So sorry for your loss, glad your beloved Don knew the Lord and you have the assurance of his eternity  and that you WILL see him again.  Much love to you.  Janet 2022-06-18, 08:49:36

Oldiesmann: So sorry for your loss Carol. Praying for you and your family :( 2022-05-01, 17:13:05

Carol: My husband Don is with the angels.....Our family was able to hold  ourselves together for the last moments.  Juar rhoufhr you might want to know. 2022-04-29, 23:35:15

Carol: Thankful:  Don is home from hospital.  I found him unconscious with head outside on the floor and the rest was in the shower.  At the same moment, one son was walking through the front door to visit.  Two fire trucks came racing in and they took over After 2021-12-29, 22:01:26

Now this is one where I would agree with Jeanne Lee's previous assessment, "EEEWWWW!  What an ugly bug."   ;D :thumbsup:

Great shot, Ken!  I hear that EF100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM lens is very sharp.  You did a great job with it.  I like how you used f/11 with aperture-priority to get the flower and fly in focus.

Thanks Jeanne Lee ;)

Buddy, it is a great lens, and if I wasn't so lazy I would use a tripod and make much better photos with it!  The DOF is paper-thin, so stopping down is required to get more than a sliver in focus.  I find f/11 works pretty sweet when hand-holding and shooting in close quarters, but even then I will often shoot three or four frames and choose the best.  And I am almost always an Av shooter...and sometimes that is not a good thing :-[

Buddy, as good as the lens is for close up shots, it can still do a nice job on portraits and landscapes...
