    The impact at first was the intro image, however I prefer the delicate structures of the second and third image, Rainforest. Something to try to emulate !

    Thanks a lot Jim, appreciate your comments. I added one more mossy one that sparkles a bit ;-)

    The first one reminds me of a margarita shot...wonder why? It looks like salt. Very pretty.
    I wish #2 is my shot...envious...
    This will be an elegant statement to a runway model if it can be made real...beautiful!!!
    All together -- excellent job. But I will never get used to winter. I am glad for our weather lately, a non-winter, and the storms away from us (knockwood...)

    Thanks Izzie. I'm glad you took the time to look and comment - I can't get margarita out of mind now looking at that one ;-)

    The first one works especially well for me because of its nice lines and depth of field.

    Even given my relatively liberal use of the term, macro, I wouldn't call any of these photos macro photos.

    Thanks Mike. Perhaps winter close ups is better.

    The frost on the delicate leaves is really quite lovely. So much beauty in the simple things.

    Re: Winter Macros

    Excellent images; i really love how the second leaf at the bottom accentuates the beauty of the central leaf in #1.....well framed
    Regarding #2, i don't get the beauty in full due to a bright background there
    #3 is a real beauty
    In #4 it would be better to give a termination to hanging long thread by cloning away the tip or so....

    Thank you! Nandakumar. I like the crop idea for #4 - good improvement.
