Hi Philippe,

The insect just wandered into the photo as I took the shot. I have a  
couple with him out of view but I liked this one better. Using this  
gear is fun. I especially like the Hektor lens. I got it from my  
local dealer. It looks like it had never been used.

Thanks for the nice comments.

Regards,
Len
