Sorry I haven't been posting here very much -just spread too thin lately

She would have almost covered the palm of my hand -if I was man enough to pick her up

All Canon gear: Xti (manual mode F11, 1/200, ISO 100) + MPE-65mm macro lens. MT-24EX with home made diffusers. Images range from life size to four times life size. I tried to reposition myself for a 5x shot but she didn't like it and decided she had enough of me and my camera...
