still snowing

Youngest was supposed to leave today, but low ceilings and icy weather prevented her flight from taking off. Fortunately, her father grew concerned over weather last night and we had rebooked her flights so we weren't sitting in the airport for the delays today. Hopefully the weather will clear, as predicted, and she will make it back in time for classes on Tuesday. Fingers crossed!

@taffy Thank you! I have been having more success with the field of clarity since I switched from my 100mm macro lens to my 50mm with extension tubes. This was shot with all three tubes (the 36mm, 20mm and 12mm) and the ring light.

once of those events you don't know whether you should celebrate of mourn. The pic is definitely one to celebrate.
