But so beautiful a light as it fades. This is masterful. I do not have the Canon 100mm macro, but this shot really advertises it very, very well (in the hands of a very strong photographer as yourself, Ron).

@Bill: Thanks so much, Bill ... you are too kind. Actually, this was taken with a Canon 24 – 105mm f/4L lens with a Canon 300D close-up lens attached ... I don't own a macro lens ... I have to make do with the poor man's macro! I do appreciate your kind words and your visits ... ron
@Didier DE ZAN: Thank you, Didier ... as always, I appreciate your visits and your comments ... ron
@Lorraine: Thanks Lorraine ... someone had left this little beauty sitting on a park bench and it was calling out to be photographed as the evening shadows were growing long ... ron
