It's been a while since I did some macro stuff, so when I got my new Canon 5D Mkii, I decided to give it a go.......
Taken in my back yard using the 5D Mkii and Sigma 180mm APO macro, using natural light and shallow DOF.
The purple in the background is from lavender growing alongside this grevillea.
High ISO used as it was quite breezy (wanted to keep the plant in sharp focus) and I was also testing out the high ISO quality of the new camera.

This beautiful specimen of a Red Grasshawk was dark red with strong black lines on its wings and orange spots before its transparent wing tips. Quite a tiny dragonfly with only about 40 mm total wingspan, yet it did me the favour of casting this nice drop shadow on the half rolled up leaf. Shot in Malaysia with the Canon 180 mm macro lens at full open aperture.

سلام قرمزها سبز ها طلايي ها
به من بگوييد آيا در آن اتاق بلور
كه مثل مردمك چشم مرده ها سرد است
و مثل آخر شبهاي شهر بسته و خلوت
صداي ني لبكي را شنیده اید ؟

I look through my window,
and what do I see?
My life is a view through
Rose Colored Glass
The world is an alright place.
Trees sprout leaves for me to see
Cars drive by, and the driver's wave 'hello'
People smile and acknowledge you as they walk by....
Don't ruin my illusion of life...
Don't tell me this isn't real...
This is my vision; my illusion; my dream....
Through my rose colored glass
