    Awww, thanks Rhonda and Missy! I just got really close and REALLY lucky to get a good shot of that little critter. (And I have lots of blurry shots to prove it was sheer luck!)

    Thanks Kimberlina for the link.

    I am impressed with all entries. Among the winners..I liked Kimberlina's and lacj's pictures for their "arty-ness" (in picture taking) . I liked cheapgeek's because I am trying my hand at window gardening as well.

    Wow, thank you.
    I really loved the closeups of all the flowers.
    I haven't mastered my camera yet. I would love to take closeups...
    I started reading the camera book in the car a while back and after 3 hours, I wasn't even half way through it.
    And, of course I immediately forgot EVERYTHING
    Sorry for the duplicate, posted in the wrong place...
