Thanks Rod, the water also helped to enrich the dry colours :)
Debi I don't use Macro or Super Macro as I don't seem to get good results as you have to get so close it cuts down light and frightens all the little creatures away :(
I use a Sigma close-up (macro) filter, which is equivalent to the Canon 500D. This enables you to move your camera futher away, and zoom in more, but you have to be careful that you select a smaller aperture when zoomed in to ensure the DOF is not too shallow! A tripod can also help to reduce blur caused by shake!

Nicely done Maurice the water at the base is a nice touch.
