[COLOR="Purple"]I finally took the DSLR plunge and got a Sony a100. That was Friday. Today I picked up a Sigma 50mm 1:1 macro lens.

These were outside my front door (macro subjects are everywhere!) this evening on some milkweed plants. Couldn't find any monarch caterpillars. sad

Note the "artsy" cropping. wink

With this her solemn bird and this fair moon,
And these the gems of heaven, her starry train.
