Happily moodling with my new Nikon this morning. Working with focusing on a small, close-in subject. Very appropriate I thought, for the blog - being all about having a macro-focus, or exquisite awareness of the little, tiny, everyday things that bring joy, contentment and peace. Here's my experiment:

Using P:Mode (a kind of flexible auto-mode).
Metaphorically, I can say I spend a fair bit of time in this mode... |

Using the auto macro-zoom setting (added richness...better focus) |

Using the auto macro-zoom with flash (exquisite awareness with just a little more dash!) |
Variations on a theme - yet with a common thread: the beautiful still centre that is the heart of the composition. Remind you of anything?
And the big boy that makes it all possible...

This is love.
