Ancient

Sometimes I feel ancient beyond measure, but only in the body. My mind still strives and worries and believes in endless improvement.

Wonderful detail and shallow DOF. I feel certain you are a long way from ancient unless you have lived before!

[Jay Butterfield]

Great DOF -- much better than my latest close up. Nice detail.

Beautiful focus and DoF. Glad your mind is active, and think body must be too to have achieved this great shot!

Great capture of light, textures

I wonder how that thistle feels about winter? Nice shot.

Superb detail and like the juxtaposition of spiky against soft blur.
