Thanks. I will have to do some reading. My eyes are not seeing what yours are. You were speaking of the second bridge picture, not the first?

Very Nice Wind.

A small sample of my wife Mary’s B’day “Orange Star” bouquet. Each bloom is the size of a dime. Shown is a selected bloom from a cluster of blooms. Wish I knew how to reduce the size of my photos. I've tried but to no avail.

Very nice photo! Great detail. I love the colors of Spring blooming. I'm waiting for the Amaryllis to start blooming.

Found this 1944 vintage NOS Valvo 329A vacuum tube, while cleaning out the hi-fi/guitar amp stash. Mil spec Wehrmacht stamp. I have no idea why I have this tube. Nothing I have or work on uses it.

You folks killing me with those impressive close ups - stuff the naked (can I say that on this site) eye would never see. Very cool.

Thanks! Gonna try to add some vintage guitar amp restoration (1966 Gibson Explorer), the next two weeks. Try out the new 90mm macro.

Wide angle shot (10mm)...
