I went over to a neighbor's yard because she is the only person that still have nice flowers blooming. I wanted to try out the new lens on the camera. WOW!! IS ALL I CAN SAY! The Macro function that operates between 180-300mm is AMAZING! I was standing about 2.5-3 feet away from this flower!! I was not expecting results like this. I am also using a UV Filter on the lens as well.

	Sentencing scheduled for club owner

Richmond night club owner Samuel Moore was sentenced Thursday to 60 days in jail with no work release. Moore was taken away in handcuffs.

Sam Moore agreed to an alford plea earlier this month. That means he doesn't admit guilt but, agrees prosecutors have enough evidence to convict him.

Moore is accused of having sex with a minor and videotaping a sex act with an 18-year-old woman without her knowledge.

Commonwealth Attorney Michael Herring says now there will be a federal investigation regarding Sam Moore and his strip club in Shockoe Bottom, he says the club has many ABC violations.

This photo is Cropped from Trumpet Vine 3. I wanted to show all the black ants that were on these blooms. I see a little softness in the photo at the crop size, but i am really impressed with it at the same time. I do not understand why they were all over this unopened bloom.

Here is the cropped photo of one bloom i shot yesterday. It has an amazing amount of detail and i cropped it from the Trumpet Vine 5 photograph. Look at the bottom left center and see the fuzz, also look at the veins on the inside illuminated from the sun. I always loved these as a child growing up in Texas.
