Thanks Puckman, Apple fanboy, and fcortese for the kind comments. Much appreciated.
Awwww, thanks! Sorry for going AWOL for so long. For the first summer in years, I did so much traveling and shooting that I had very little time for processing and sharing. And of course, the longer that the raw files sit on my hard drive, the more critical I become of them (probably a good thing!).

We may have lost but at least I got this picture of a Roosters fan picking his nose. He'd be well embarrassed.

Outstanding and so well seen Phrasikleia! I love the leading lines created by the tulips.

Heh, that's funny. You're the second person to guess that those are large flowers. You guessed tulips and someone else guessed roses. They're actually globeflowers, much smaller than the average tulip. Here's a crummy photo of me plunking down to get set up for the shot; I think it gives a decent sense of scale (click for larger):
I had to get really close to the flowers in order to make them look large in the frame and ended up shooting a series of four horizontals and stitching them together to get the vertical composition (otherwise, it would have been all flowers and no background at that distance).
Anyway...thanks for your kind words!

Nice catch! Very dramatic with that colored contrail and very well composed.
Very cool Schtumple. I love the scale or proportion of you within this and the pose you have taken is perfect for musing about your place within the Universe.
Thanks guys! I'm super proud of that shot, everyone here shoots such amazing photography, so thank you for giving mine a comment!

Very interesting and surprising that the globeflowers are actually quite small. Again, beautifully done Phrasikleia and thanks for your feedback on my shot.

Wandering around the front yard this morning with extension tubes and my macro lens at play. I had to push the ISO to 6400 so as to get a shutter time of 1/500th to allow me to go handheld, I'm really surprised by how clean it is considering this.
Click through to see it larger, there's a surprise that I'm pretty sure won't show very well at this small size here.

Wow! So totally not the picture I conjured up. Thanks for the behind the scenes sneak peek Phrasikleia.
