Ah, but do they make the appropriate sound? Always love these and your macros of them are superb as indeed is the detail of that unfurling fern.

A top notch set of macros Carol, the detail and clarity you get with that compact camera of yours is simply amazing, you put many of the pros with all their expensive gear to shame!
