Congratulations Mick. An outstanding macro - even without the purple flower. And I agree with you on the time flying - I remember when I was counting days until Christmas - and they just wouldn't go by fast enough, Sig..

A beautiful and detailed shot! Congratulations on a whole year, I expect the next 5 will go by as fast as this 1st one. I feel like I'm a leaf in a storm drain, shooting along never touching the sides. Best make the most of every day!

Excellent detail symmetry in the close up. Congratulations Mick, now just for the next 100 and you will be an old timer. LOL Are you kidding about Jeff? He seems to be much too wise and articulate for a one year old, hehe.

Well Happy first Birthday on Renderosity Mick, I didn't even give it a thought till now, I know you did mention something about it maybe last week but I forgot. Excellent capture, of this wonderful Scottish Emblem, I saw some of these over five foot tall at the gardens near Kelso Castle a few years ago. They have their own corner in the flower gardens and are tended to just like the rose bushes in the same garden. They don't treat them as weeds up there I can tell you. I would have thought the Scots would hate them, especially when they are wearing a Kilt Lol. It's a shame it didn't bloom for you Mick as they are beautiful when they do, even though they are prickly. Superb macro, excellent clarity and detail. Bravo!!!!! Hope the weather is kind to you next week mate, we have just had a very heavy downpour.
