Helen is always posting the most fascinating images with buttons and small things around her home. This post is to honor her work (and show off my new Canon 100mm f2.8 macro lens!)

A great tribute to Helen, Larry! She is a real winner here on PB!!!! Lucy too!!! danrav · 2012-01-26: 21:17

I have "lens envy"! Fantastic photos and fantastic focus. djnana · 2012-01-26: 22:28

Great shots with the cool new lens, Larry! Makes sense to think of Helen at a time like this....she really does nail those types of macros! lookagain · 2012-01-26: 22:49

I'm have lens envy, too. I've eyed that 100mm macro for a while...macros are so fascinating and open up a whole new world of creativity. Enjoy it!! jtnelso · 2012-01-27: 12:45

Now this is a lovely thing to do Larry, she will be happy. You made some really good macro shots here. Ryana · 2012-01-28: 02:32

What a lovely gesture - thank you so much Larry! It looks like you're having lots of fun with your new lens - I'm looking forward to seeing more photos from it here! girafferacing · 2012-01-28: 11:36

Way cool shots! Awesome new lens. I often think I want a cool macro lens like you have, but then how would I sneak up on all the birdies? Wonderful shots! SheriJ · 2012-01-28: 14:22

Ohhh wonderful! I've been thinking of buying the exact same lens! You happy with it? :) thekeyislooking · 2012-07-16: 13:00
