Great start! What kind of settings did you use? What lens are you using?

D200-Sigma 180-f/11-1/160-iso400-aperture priority-auto WB-spot metering and used AF. I tried some manual focus but there was a slight breeze, my eyes are bad and this one kept moving every 4 or 5 seconds. Thanks for comments and taking the time to look.

Handheld? Great photo. Breeze is the killer of most macro shots, unfortunately. This is great.

Thanks Markw...used a tripod, I'm too shaky most of the time to do handheld.
