[Leica] First Daffodil of Spring

[Jim Nichols]

Hi Ted,

I like to think I had a little part in making the final image, but this 
gear is a match made in heaven.  The camera is the first Olympus 
professional digital camera, and the lens is one I'm sure you had at one 
time, the Leica Macro-Elmarit-R 60mm.  They work very well for flowers.  
I just did a little work in post processing.

Glad I could brighten your day.  Thanks for the kind words.
