1. Very nice

#1 is very innovative as an "in camera" manipulation. But you should have put the bee a little further to the lower right, especially since you have gone into the artsy world of photoshopping.

(edit -- 's' is very close to 'a' but not quite the same)

3. Kewl. You spent some serious change
Very nice!!!
:thumbsup:

Is that the F2.8 100mm/Macro? I wish I'd had that for the Flower thing. This is one I took after the "contest". Very impressive lens. Yea, I know.. it's another friggin' flower. :eyes:

4. Expensive, yes but I'm worth it!
Someone posted about a group purchase and that prompted me to come up with a list of lenses. After hours of research, I had my list but was too impatient to wait for the group purchase thing to happen.
Here is my rig.
Rebel 350 XT
10-22 zoom
50 f/1.8
100 f/.2.8 Macro
200 f/2.8L
Manfrotto 190 tripod with RC322 head. This tripod/head combo rocks!!
