It was confusing, Stan... when you looked before, the EXIF was not there and I'm sure the f/2.8 stood out as correct. Thanks bunches for looking at my image again! ~Lydia

Lydia - seeing too many pictures lately, didn't look at exif data, if we could do that at 2.8 we would all want that lens, great shot again.-Stan

Penny does exaggerate a bit, doesn't she? *grin* Thanks, though!!

Thanks, Stan. It's the lens that's 2.8. The shot was at f/13.

Thanks Troy and Christakis. I'll update the image to reflect the tech stuff. :) ~lydia

gorgeous color and detail and I love your choice of dof.
Chistakis, Lydia is the Queen of Creatures - trust me, they do anything and everything she asks!!!

Lydia... Amazing :) I am hopping I can take pictures like this one soon. Love the colours and composition. What are the tech details of this pic? It doesn't look like f/2.8, how did you get the bug to be so still ?

Another very beautiful image from you Lydia. I like the bright "popping" colors.

Beautiful shot Lydia, great dof at 2.8 and exposure etc. Stan

Thanks, Dang and Debi.

Debi, I really like my100mm. I would like to do closer up, though. Perhaps later...
I use the 100 for lots of stuff. I didn't think I would, so am pleased. ~Lydia

Excellent as usual, do you think you need a longer lens or is this sufficient for your purpose - my next lens will be a macro and I am already looking around - Debi

Nicely done. Beautiful composition, and excellent detail.
