Sharp and nice even lighting. Has that "prime" look too. Well done, Roy.

Absolutely beautiful Roy!

You couldn't ask for a more perfect shot. Were you using the 100 f/2.8 macro?

Thanks Laurie and Jim. You are right Jim on the 100 f/2.8 macro. I heard it is sharp but I didn't think it would be as sharp as it turns out to be. Mounted on the Mark III for this shot.
