I was thinking the same thing...how we influence and encourage each other! Photography is a lot of fun and rewarding too. I am sooooo happy to hear that you are taking pictures now. Believe me, you will get hooked. This winter while I am hibernating, I am going to practice macro photography.
HaHa! I knew you would like to see my ant picture. I think I will post it next week but the photos didn't turn out very well. The sun was too bright, the ant (i am pretty sure is a carpenter ant) was moving so fast, and I was in a hurry just like the ant.
I will send @brisby your love when I hear from her. I hope she is OK. You have a great weekend. : )
