Holly Berries with Ice

Playing with the "microscope" setting on the new point and shoot today. I guess you could call it "super macro" as it takes the macro setting and allows you to get even closer. If you have the ability to do so, zoom in on the ice on top of this berry and you'll see how it magnifies the shot even more.

@grammyn Thank you Katy! I hadn't thought about the Christmas aspect until you mentioned it. Now I will have The Holly and The Ivy playing in my head all night! hehe

Your camera sounds superior, Ann - the nature of the ice is very visible!

Love the details in the ice and the DoF creating a nice blurring frame for it.

The detail on that ice is amazing

@kjarn Thank you Kathy! I am very impressed with this camera. It's an upgraded version of the one I used to use which I'm giving to my grandson Sam for Christmas. He had used it this summer and is really enjoying photography so we agreed it would be his present this year. I actually think I'm the one who got the gift!
