Springtime is always good for the macro lens.
I think you and I love the same type shots, Irv ✨✨✨✨✨ I was always a macro/closeup guy until I started hanging around with a couple of guys who shot birds. Then I got a couple of super-telephoto lenses, and not my macro production is way down. When I do, my Pixel Pro 7 really does a great job.

All new photos taken for this challenge.(all heavy crops)
I have almost always taken pictures of what I wanted, but it seems that by taking photos of what someone else wants pushes me to try something new, which is why I like these challenges.
