Nice butterfly.
but i really love the blue colour in the photoshop'd version, nice work!
i considered the alternative lens's, and even though i'm in debt
i'm still going to finance my L series lens's because

a.) i'm stupid for spending money i don't have
b.) i drink before i make any major purchases
c.) i really want to suffer juggling payments to enjoy better quality...
d.) just to back up my point 'b' ... when i bought a car for $16,000 i was
so hung over, i swear i had enough alcohol in my blood to kill a mule.
e.) i can't believe some idiot let me drive off in a $16,000 car! hahaha....

i hope this post doesn't hurt anyones feelings, but my a,b,c's made me laugh
so hard i just had to see if anyone else thought it was funny.

Well I bought a house as pissed as a cricket (aussie term for drunk) for $650,000 4 years ago. I was that bad I had to ring the Real Estate Agent on monday to get a picture of inside the house because I couldnt remember what it looked like!!

Nice lens, I am getting the sigma 17-70 which has Macro.

better to buy a lens than a house ??

Nice picture and lice lens! I like the original picture better. The green's are much more natural, and by removing some of the dark tones inbetween the leafs, you loose the sence of depth... Have fun!
