wow, great shot. I think you might get a few more comments if you include the picture in the post instead of just the link.

THANKS everyone for your comments. This 105mm macro lens is one hell-of-a lens that Nikon puts
out. Worth every penny. I'm having a ball with it.

HI jim and welcome to DPS. Congrats on your first post, it's a doozy!!!! The clarity is amazing. It looks like a whole bunch of little stud piercings around your birdies eye. Very cool photo, well done. I will be looking forward to seeing your future posts.
Cheers.... Tim
