@mrssmith Oh- it's that amazing place the camera on the ground and shoot trick again! Now that I've learned where the macro setting is, I'm getting some amazing detail. Thanks so much for the words of praise. I was trying to put up something else and lost yesterday's pic, so I really needed the encouragement!
@allie912 Thanks Allison- it really has to do with learning where the macro setting is and then understanding how much my camera can do with it. I think I've finally gotten a handle on how close I can get to get these details. I used to get very frustrated with this camera, but now I'm starting to like it. Thanks!!!
@digitalrn@kerristephens Thanks Rick and Kerri! Yes Rick, he had a whole bunch of friends close by- but that post will have to wait for another day- it's the one I want to edit.
