Michael! glad to see you back. I've been missing your posts. I especially like the colors on your first and the delicacy of the third. Were these taken with your new Canon 100mm lens or the old Sigma?

Hi Michael! Thank You, I'm still learning how to use it, the auto focus system is great, but I've still not mastered all the details. Nope, I don't name my cameras, lest they become jelouse and start acting up.

Hi Mike, Thanks for the Kind Comments, These were taken with the new Canon 100mm. I really like the lens, it's quiet and smooth, but you really can't use the IS when shooting macro in Manual mode. So I don't think it's significantly better than the Sigam 105 for Macro.
