Wow Stella these are awesome captures. The detail in all of them is so sharp and clear. I don't think I'd be eating those tomatos though lol.. Take a bow you did a fantastic job with all of them.

Thanks Dave ;-) I got those with the 510, I'm really diggin' that camera ;-) You know whats funny is I know those look like tomatos, but they're not, they're actually tiny berries off of my pyrocantha (sp) plant ;-) but I thought they came out looking like maters too ;-)

Stella, you have deleoped a close up technique that is pretty well second to none here on dps, these are outstanding images and of course all beasts are available to view in giant size and full colour through flickr, nice job

Terrific shots!

[StellaG]

Wowzer Beachcomber!! Thanks! High praise indeed! I don't know what to say, I'm extremely flattered! Thanks much! ;-)

Those are OUTSTANDING! What lens are you using? I can't believe those aren't tomatoes! I especially appreciate the grasshopper, having recently spent a great deal of time chasing one around!

Thanks! I'm just using the kit lens that came with the Olympus 510, 14-42 I think...it does pretty good macro work I think, I really like the color it turns out. Nice camera.
