Christopher Robbin's House??? I was cutting firewood, and save this one for a yard decoration.

My wife was given a minature rose -- or so we were told -- and she planted it by the cdorner of the front porch. Over the years it's been kept cut way back, but she was sick last year and the rose didn't get pruned as much, and this year it didn't get pruned at all. It is really putting out the flowers this year.

You guys seem to get better insect pictures than I do. I didn't have the doubler on the lens, and that's as close a focus as I can get.

I can't speak for anyone else, but most all of my closeup pictures are crops. I shoot in the largest image size my camera has, and crop out the insect single flower or whatever. I can focus real close with my macro lens, but even then I crop quite a bit.

You do have a beautiful yard there!

I cropped the bee, and here's what I got. I think it worked pretty well, Thanks.
