This is a weird plant a friend gave me that sits on my windowsill. Its strange flowers became my first macro model!

Interesting leaves alright. Great macro. Looking forward to more Macros, as I'm guessing there will be plenty soon, and can't wait to see Mikes history of the flower :)

Very nice macro, especially for your fist picture. Don't you love all the details that you pick up with those lenses. That was the first type of lens that I bought when I started with photography. Have fun and your off to a great start!!!!

Very nice macro. I want to hear all about the lens, and if you would recommend this lens. A macro lens is going to be my next purchase. I have the 80-400 VR lens, and I love the VR feature.

Thanks, Mary and Mike. Technically I was a little disappointed as the image doesn't have that crystal clarity I was hoping for, but not bad for the first shot, I suppose! Yes, Mike, new lens (Nikkor 105mm macro f2.8 with VR), and please don't ask how much it cost!! I'll see what I can do about the full plant portrait!

Very nice macro. I like the composition and lighting. The dark background and lighting shows up the fringed edges of the plant nicely.
