Back to basics

Ah, back in the swing of things--using the P&S, but still able to do some macros. I have MISSED this!!


And, since it is Animals week, here is a broad interpretation with a not-so-welcome garden visitor. I prefer to find the empty shells!! I don't mind the snails; I do mind that they chew up my plants. They are, after all, slugs in drag...

    Pat, you amaze and inspire me. !!
    You managed these refractions with your P & S , they are so sharp and clear, great focus . !!
    Your snail shells are quite different to ours, very interesting with their contrasting spiral markings.
    They can be destructive little devils.

    I'm so glad that you're at least getting to do something you love, even if right now it's half:)

    Love that snail, such an interesting/amazing creature.

    OMG Pat, these are beautiful. Who needs a DSLR, when you can do this with a P&S. These are truly amazing, *sigh*, maybe someday.

    I am humbled by your skill to get Macros like that with a P&S no less. One day when I grow up I will take at least one macro as nice as yours!!
