Fairie Dust

Angel Island
I won 2nd prize in the Angel Island photo contest. I get $50 coupon towards purcahse of a Tamron lens. I think I'll get the 90mm macro lens. The minimum distance on the 90mm lens is 11 inches, whereas the 180mm is 18 inches. The advantage of the 90mm is that it weighs half as much, so I'll be more likely to have it with me.

I don't know what this is a picture of. I took the picture with a 180mm macro lens. Whatever this is, it is about the size of the end of a pensil eraser. I had no idea it was so beautiful (or even that it was there) until I looked through the lens.
