So is the PRairie Lily related to the Venus Fly trap? (that'll make em look at the shots ) They don't look quite real to me -- probably because these shots are so extremely sharp and the angle of the sun. The fly is nice for scale... I think those are what we call Tiger Lilies, yes? Aesthetically, I think I like the close up better than the first one. ann -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
