<p>A good Nikon Wednesday to all, including all of you small things that live between the cracks, in the stairwells, under the roots, and everywhere else that people with macro lenses like to look. This week, a visit with the front end of a (not very) high speed Leopard Slug on his way to do slug business a few feet away from where he started. Or she. I can't tell!<br>

What's everybody been shooting? Share! </p><div></div>

<p>Some memories from Bangkok....last September. I believe this is a lotus.</p>

<p>Les</p><div></div>

<p>Close-up with minimal dof - daffodil</p><div></div>

<p>Zion in the fall from 1999 on Velvia.</p><div></div>

<p>Not exactly a macro shot. On our daily jaunt at our favorite park yesterday noticed a lot of little black tadpoles along the shoreline. I just purchased this cheap plastic Nikkor 28-80 G lens and decided to try it out. Not a bad lens. <br>

</p><div></div>

<p>My son, and Fenris, disagreeing on how fast the stick should be thrown.</p><div></div>

<p>New mural for Reverend Pinckney and 8 other victims of church shooting</p><div></div>
