Grevillea Whispers
















A new world of wonder opens up with my super macro conversion lens, I love it! Most these views are from this grevillea flower below. (If you look carefully you will notice the caterpillar in the photo directly above and also below)




Quite a deal of excitement mid-afternoon when this parcel arrived! Our first iPad lies safely inside, the new third generation iPad. I believe there are wonderful things to explore on it with photos too. I guess I'll have to take a number with all 10 of us wanting to have a turn on it over the next few days. My husband will enjoy opening it tonight at his leisure, no doubt surrounded by many very eager onlookers!

  49. I am awed and appalled at the quality and the detail of the maco photos you were able to get with the new lens. It is wonderful. I went over and read all about it in your other post. Now I am itching for one...not good, I know. But, then, I am still on my iPad 1 and my iPhone 3G without Siri. genie
