    Kirsten - I just had to post about the Not Feeling Well! HOW CUTE!

    You might want to frame that one with the caption: "I Need A Hug."

    LOL!

    I saw that poor little guy dead on the floor, only hours after I took the photo.

    If I grow up, I wanna take shots just like you.

    Kirsten, I'm still trying to figure out my Canon A700. When you set your camera to Macro mode, do you change any other settings, or do you just point and shoot? Did you use the zoom feature or did you really have the camera that close to the subject?
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Thanks! I was extremely lucky with the "Encounter" photo, a great moment to capture!

    @Slick: I use the super macro mode (don't know if the A700 has that one, too). And yes, I really have the camera that close to the object. The zoom does not work when I'm in super macro mode; it's inactive.

    BTW, the last one, the lily photo, was taken with the zoom, not with the macro mode, it actually is no real macro.
